Kenneth S. Brown

Kenneth Scott Brown, 51, died Friday, August 27, 2021, following a courageous battle with cancer.

Born to Kenneth Joseph Brown and Judy Patricia Rentrop Brown in Lake Charles, Ken was a 1989 graduate of LaGrange High School and a member of St. Margaret Catholic Church. Ken proudly served his country as a medic in the U.S. Army Reserves and continued his passion for service as a firefighter in the Lake Charles Fire Department for 23 years. Ken was an active member and cherished leader in the Boy Scouts of America Calcasieu Area Council where he shared his passion for service and love of scouting to the community’s next generation of leaders. Of no greater importance to Ken was spending time with his wife and his son. Ken was steadfast in support of all his son’s activities and in his unyielding love for his wife. Ken created a legacy of service, courage and friendship that will be remembered by all who were fortunate to have known him.

Those left to cherish his memory are his loving wife, Lori Conner Brown; Son, Braden Conner Brown; his mother; and his two brothers, Keith Wayne Brown and girlfriend Carla Dickerson and Brian Morgan Brown and wife Debbie, all of Lake Charles. Ken was preceded in death by his father and one brother, Dane Alan Brown.
