Twyla Brown

Twyla Brown, born on June 8, 1941, in Austin, Indiana, departed this life on December 26, 2025. She was a remarkable woman whose vibrant spirit touched the lives of many around her.

Twyla was known for her humor, strength, and forthright nature. Friends and family alike always knew where they stood with her, as she had a way of expressing herself that was both honest and warm. A good God-fearing woman, Twyla held her faith close and regularly attended church, where she found joy and community.

Throughout her life, Twyla enjoyed numerous activities that brought her happiness. She was an avid dancer, often remembered for her spirited participation in the church's Valentine's dance, where she shared laughter and joy with those around her. One cherished memory recalls a Christmas party where she was dancing and having a great time; her aides adored witnessing this joyful side of her. In addition to her love for dancing, Twyla also had a fondness for playing cards and bingo, as well as dining out with loved ones.
