To everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted:
Michael O. D. Brown was born on May 20, 1996 to Michael Brown, and Lesley McSpadden in St. Louis, MO.
Michael departed this life suddenly in Ferguson, MO on August 9, 2014. Michael was preceded in death by his grandfather Lubie Brown, his great-grandmothers, Para Lee Ewings, Eldora Forston and Lillie Carpenter.
Michael accepted Christ at an early age and joined Original Friendship Baptist Church where he attended with his parents.
Michael was educated in the St. Louis Public School System. He graduated from Normandy High School on May 23, 2014. Michael was in process of getting ready to attend Vatterott College (on Monday, August 11, 2014).
Michael was an avid lover of music, computers, and sports during his young life played football. He loved to Rap about life and was so good at it that he was asked to write a song for a friend. He was a very friendly, gentle giant who loved his family very much. Michael enjoyed playing the PS4 and X Box games.
A time to weep, and a time, to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance.
Michael leaves to cherish his memories: his beloved mother, Lesley McSpadden (Louis Head-stepfather), his father, Michael Brown, Sr. (step-mother Calvina Brown); one sister, Déjà; six half sisters, Trinetta, Trinity, Triniya, Mi’Kelle, Jazmine and Caitlin; six half brothers, Triston, T’Andrew, Tyler , Andre’, Louis Jr., and Jaidon; his grandparents, Maxine Brown, DeSuirea Harris, and Leslie McSpadden.
