Obituary
Phillip Raymond Guy Brown, age 41, of Des Moines, formerly of Numa, passed away Wednesday, October 12, 2022 at MercyOne Medical Center in Des Moines.
Phil was born on September 19, 1981 in Centerville, Iowa, the son of Phillip "Buck" Raymond Brown and Kellie (Strode) Brown. In 2007, he began dating the love of his life, and on February 13, 2017, Phil was united in marriage to Stephanie Young. To this union, his son Ace was born.
Phil always said he "wasn't going to be here for a long time, but was going to be here for a good time." He never met a stranger, and was able to make conversation with anyone. Phil would always be sure that all of his friends and their families were doing okay, by reaching out to them as often as possible. He was friends with everyone he came in contact with, and always gave anyone a chance. Last year on his birthday, Phil went sky diving, which was one of the main things on his bucket list. Phil's pride and joy was his son, Ace. He would brag about him any chance he got.
Phil worked full-time at Capitol City Fruit in Norwalk for the past 10 years. He enjoyed working there and having a good conversation with his fellow employees.
