Mara Lynn Scott-Brown Obituary (1962

Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. Psalms 91:1 NLT Mara Lynn Scott Brown affectionately known as "Lynn" after a lengthy illness was granted her Angel Wings on June 8, 2022, surrounded by her family who provided prayer, love and support during her transition. Lynn was also known as one of the Golden Girls and wore the title well. Her favorite show became a funny lifestyle for her and she would let out a belly laugh every time she watched the episodes of her favorite show. Born on the 7th day of January, 1962 to Frank and Laura Washington, Lynn would be the 6th child of the Washington's and was everyone's Baby Girl. Lynn attended Guadalupe Catholic School, and was a member of Ms. Griego's School of Dance. Lynn also played the saxophone. Lynn would continue her education and graduated in the Class of 1981 at Galveston Ball High School. After graduation Lynn took a job in Medical Billing at UTMB and remained there until retirement and failing health. Lynn was a faithful member of the Queen of Peace Church in La Marque until her health declined. Lynn had (3) beautiful kids Ashton, Ashley and Ronnie Jr., that she covered like a mother with cubs, they were the loves of her life and you would see her enjoying every minute of them growing up. Lynn was very active in their school sports. On any given Friday Night you could hear her and Felix yelling the La Marque Cougar chant. Lynn continued to enjoy her Galveston life. Lynn would eventually meet her forever love Felix Brown Sr., they met and after a brief courtship they married and blended their families adding (2) additional sons. Felix Brown Jr. and Harrison Brown. Felix and Lynn were married for 24 year, until her departure on June 8, 2022 Lynn was a fun-loving person and never met a stranger. She was known for being an excellent cook making outstanding dishes like Gumbo and Mexican Casserole. Her favorite past times were dancing, playing cards and pulling the lever on the 1-arm Bandit at the Casino (always a winner). Lynn's Life seem so short to many at 60 years old but those who were touched by her understood that the quality of the existence far exceeds the quantity of time in which one lives. Her smile was infectious and her laughter brought us all Joy! Until the end, Lynn was nothing if not joyful. We will all greatly miss her smile and adventuresome spirit. But now; we are grateful that she knows what it's like to be genuinely unbound without disease, pain or treatment. We will greatly miss our Golden Girl...Mara Lynn Scott Brown Lynn was preceded in death by father Frank Washington Sr, Mother Laura "De Dear" Washington, sister RJ Dinnon, brother Frank Washington Jr. and grandparents.
