(Gus) and Annie Murphy.  She was preceded in death by husband Fred T. Brown and son, Michael F. Brown. She is survived by numerous nieces and nephews. Nell graduated from Coolidge High School. She was retired from FEMA as a Secretary. She was a member of Big Creek Baptist Church where she played the piano for many years and was later accompanied on the organ by her son, Mike. She had the God given ability to play beautiful music and could not read music. Her first grade teacher discovered this talent and had her playing the piano for school programs. She was young enough that her feet didn't reach the pedals. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Big Creek Cemetery Fund, C/O Steve Strickland - 20048 Hwy 319 N., Coolidge, GA 31738. Graveside services will be held at Big Creek Baptist Church Cemetery on Thursday, February 11th at 2:00 pm with Rev. Kerry Walsh officiating.
