Dechaun's obituary

Dechaun Brown was a beloved prince, grandson, son, brother, nephew, cousin, and friend. He departed this world on Tuesday, October 26th, 2021, surrounded by family, at age 27. His loss was completely unexpected, and the family is deeply saddened.

He was born on January 23rd, 1994, in Boston, MA, to Louchana Brown. After graduating from East Boston High School, he chased his dreams to become a Security Expert Strategist. He had a heart-burning desire for music and Green and Clean energy. Dechaun’s steadfast love was his passion for God and nature.

Dechaun loved his family deeply with unconditional and unending love. He worked relentlessly to provide for them. He had a unique way of expressing his genuine and sincere admiration for those he loved and cared for greatly. Anyone who knew Dechaun understood that he was kind, empathic, warm, and brilliant. He had an immense passion for the things of God and was always a source of positivity around the world. He desired to build schools across the globe for impoverished children. He was an avid outdoors enthusiast who spent much of his time in nature digging wells, planting trees, reading, meditating, praying, and stargazing. He spent much of his free time observing his favorite nature spots. Dechaun’s family and friends will miss him more than words can say.
