It has been very hard for me to make this announcement, as I am still in a large state of shock. It is with a heavy heart that we share the passing of my beloved mother, Deborah Brown, on December 10, 2025. Throughout my life, my mom always supported me (even during the times when I was probably acting more like a pre-Madonna). Through all my high school, college, and professional achievements, she was always my biggest fan. The sacrifices she made for me are too numerous to state. I can’t thank you enough for the sacrifices you made throughout your life mama! 🥺

Outside of myself, she touched countless lives with her love, kindness, and faith. I have had the chance to speak to so many people, and it truly touches my heart to learn about the mark she left on the lives of others.♥️

🖇️ My amazing wife put together such a beautiful tribute to her. I also want to thank my aunt and cousins who have helped me during this process as well. Please click the link/pic below to read her full obituary, see details about her services (Dec. 18th), and share your memories, stories, and photos—these will be a cherished keepsake celebrating her life. Anything that can be shared has touched me and means the world to me, so thank you in advance for taking the time.

💌 This has been a challenging time for my family and me, and we are grateful for the blessings God has already given us. We are doing our best to celebrate her memory, support travel for family and friends, and honor her final wishes. Any offerings, contributions, or donations would be deeply appreciated and a great help during this time.

Thank you for keeping her memory alive, and may our dear Lord Jesus Christ ✝️ bless you all. Love you forever, Mama! 🙏🏾🕊️

The older I get the more people I know pass. My Mom said that and now I am living it! To DeBi's family, although she is physically absent, the memories she left with you and anyone who knew her will never die! God knows and hears the prayers we have, are, and will pray for His comfort for your family!  

Keep in your heart, Revelation 21:4: "He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’[a] or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”

Even so, come Lord Jesus!

I'm sitting here closed eyes remembering your mom, sister, grandmother and great grandmother. I have never know Debi to be anything but kind and loving. Her demeanor has been nothing short of gracious and beloved.

"weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.”

My thoughts and prayers go to Ms. Brown and her family. I extend to her family my sincerest condolences.

Respectfully,

Mark Genovese
