Glen Maughan Brown
Glen Maughan Brown, 81, died Jan. 16, 2003, at his home in Powell.
He was born May 23, 1921, in Rigby, Idaho, to Joseph Murray and Elizabeth Maughan Brown. He graduated from Rigby High School in 1939.
He joined the Civil Conservation Corps and worked in Idaho. After Pearl Harbor he enlisted in the Marine Corps, attaining the rank of sergeant. He was a veteran of several invasions, including Guadal canal, Guam and Iwo Jima. His pride of being a Marine was reflected throughout his life.
He moved to Powell in 1948, and met and married Frances Virginia Bunn on March 15, 1949. They were sealed July 5, 1968, in the LDS Temple in Idaho Falls, Idaho.
They resided in Powell, and he worked for Burlington Truck Lines, serving Powell and Cody businesses. He was a member of the Western Conference of Teamsters and retired in 1981.
Mr. Brown was a member of the LDS Church, American Legion, Fraternal Order of Eagles, National Rifle Association and a life member of the VFW. He was active in many local organizations as past president of the Heart Mountain Rod and Gun Club, president of the Hicks and Chicks and Kut and Capers square dance clubs and commodore of the Big Horn Basin Boat Club.
He was particularly proud of his part in the organization of Powell's Little League baseball program in the 1950s and '60s. He coached little league for more than 12 years and helped coach the American Legion baseball team in 1970.
He was a member of the Northwest College booster club and rarely missed a Powell Panther or NWC Trapper athletic event. He loved being a spectator, player, coach and umpire, and he always made sure his little leaguers got to play, regardless of winning or losing.
He was an avid hunter and fisherman, who shared his skills and experiences with his sons and friends. He spent many days in his special places on the North Fork, Sunlight, Beartooths and with his uncle Jim on the Clarks Fork.
He is survived by his wife Frances, sons Larry (Fritzie) of Rancho Murieta, Calif., and Craig of Bozeman, grandchildren Lofton, Joshua and Jordan, brothers Lynn (Becky) of Montrose, Colo., and Vernon (June) of Rigby and sister Mardean (Roy) Gonnely, of Kelseyville, Calif.
He was preceded in death by his parents, brother Roy and uncle Jim of Powell.
Funeral services will be at 11 a.m. Tuesday at the Powell LDS Church with interment at Crown Hill Cemetery. Memorials may be made to a charity of choice
