Brown. Robert N. Brown was born 83 years ago in the city of Columbus. 
During the course of his lifetime, he was a publisher of newspapers, a 
founder of newspapers, a World War II veteran who went ashore on Omaha 
Beach on D-Day Plus 3, the proud father of four and grandfather to 
many, many more in our community. It was my privilege to offer the 
eulogy today at First Christian Church in Columbus, Indiana.
  I rise today to offer my condolences to the family and to the 
community at his loss. May he and his family feel the peace of Christ 
in this time of loss.
