Published in Bozeman Daily Chronicle from July 24 to July 25, 2010
Brown Alan Parsons, 74, died unexpectedly of natural causes in his home on July 20, 2010.
He is survived by his wife of 53 years, Sammylu Parsons; his children, Scott Parsons and his son Tucker, and Jenny (Brandon) Brossard and their son Ian; as well as numerous siblings.
Brown was born in Beverly, W.Va., on Oct. 22, 1935. Following graduation from high school in Elkins, W.Va., he worked as a concrete inspector with his father on the building of the Indiana Toll Road.
Seeking new adventure, he headed out to California, stopping in Boulder, Colo., where he met Sammylu who was attending Colorado University. They were married in Indianapolis, Ind., and returned to Missoula, where Brown completed his degree at the University of Montana.
They moved to California for bank management training and later returned to Montana where Brown was employed in the banking industry, along with farming in the Fairfield area.
After a long career in the banking industry, he retired as vice president of the trust department with First International Bank and Trust in Williston, N.D., and returned to Bozeman to help his son with his concrete construction business. Not one to be inactive, he also continued working part time with AM Wells as a gravel gradation technician.
Brown loved the mountains and was active in the horse community, where he served as president of the Gallatin Valley Back Country Horsemen for three years. Love of travel brought many adventures for Brown and Sammylu, including wintering in Arizona.
Brown was a dedicated family man, a gentleman, and a friend to all. He will be greatly missed.
A celebration of Brown's life will be held from 3 to 6 p.m. Sunday, July 25, at his home at 3690 Magenta Road in Bozeman. Interment will take place in Great Falls.
Arrangements are in the care of Dokken-Nelson Funeral Service; www.dokkennelson.com.
