August 15, 1954 — July 30, 2024

Terry Gene Brown, passed from this life Tuesday morning, July 30, 2024 at his home in Grants, New Mexico at the age of 69.

Terry was born on August 15th, 1954 in Long Branch, West Virginia.  He was the youngest child born to Virgil and Virginia Brown; joining his two siblings, Michael and Debra. In July of 1959, Terry's family moved to New Mexico from West Virginia. Terry attended grade school in San Rafael, New Mexico and graduated from Grants High School in 1974.

Terry started working with Anaconda Uranium Mine in 1974 until the closing of the mine in 1982. Then he worked for the Lee Ranch Coal Mine/Peabody until his retirement in 2014.

In 1980, he met Diane through his acquaintance, Keith Pace, Keith had wanted Terry to meet Diane for sometime, and so a blind date was set for Terry and Diane for a motorcycle ride. And thus, was the beginning of their life together. He and Diane were married on June 5th, 1981 in Grants, New Mexico. They were blessed with two boys, Terry Kenneth (TK) Brown and Brian Keith Brown.

Terry was a man of many talents, but most of them were shown in his work and love for mechanics. He would always take the opportunity to teach the owner of the vehicle what was wrong with it and explain how he completed the repairs. Whenever there was anyone in need of help, he was not afraid to offer a helping hand. He loved his family with all of his heart and soul. Especially when it came to his grandsons. He would always be sure that none of them were in need of anything.

 Surviving family include his wife, Diane; two sons, TK Brown and wife Tammy with their sons Jason and Cayden of Grants, NM; son Brian Brown and wife Kristin Brown with their son Eric of Albuquerque, NM. His brother Michael and wife Vicki of Grants, NM. His sister Debra Hall of Winnemucca, Nevada.
