It is with deep sadness and an overwhelming amount of love that we announce the passing of our beloved husband and father, Floyd Brown of Mount Pearl, formerly of St. Jones Within, aged 60 years. Floyd passed away peacefully at the Health Sciences Centre in St. John’s on Friday, May 15, 2026 just before 5 o’clock.
Floyd is predeceased by his uncles, Lloyd, Winston, and Albert, and his aunt Lilly. Left with fond and loving memories his wife of 32 years, Cora. His son, Jeremy (Kelsie); parents, Jim and Selina Brown; brother, Chesley Junior (Joan) parents-in-law, Gilbert and Audrey King, brother-in-law, Truman, nephew, Jackson; and a large circle of family and friends.
Visitation to be held at Fewer’s Funeral Home in Clarenville, Thursday, May 21, 2026 from 2-4 & 7-9 P.M. Funeral service to be held at Fewer’s Memorial Chapel in Clarenville Friday, May 22, 2026 at 2:00 P.M. The family would like to take this time to thank the care team at the Health Sciences Center. A special thank you to Larry and Liz Tracey; and Leonard Dooley and Rowena Brown for your love and friendship.
Floyd never left you wondering what he was thinking. He was a devoted husband, father, and friend. His family and friends count themselves lucky for the time they were given, but his sharp wit, kind heart, and genuine nature will be forever missed.

May 19, 2026 at 6:06 pmSo sorry to hear the sad news of Floyd’s passing. We visited Loreburn last summer and Floyd welcomed us on the wharf and we spent a couple of hours enjoying his friendship and company. He gave us two gallons of partridge berries that he had just finished picking on the barrens by his cabin. He will definitely be missed by many.

Diane King & Ian McKenzie says
May 21, 2026 at 2:02 pmI was so incredibly sad to hear of Floyd’s passing. We grew up together in our small community in Newfoundland and shared so many childhood memories. I was honoured to stand with Cora and Floyd on their wedding day many years ago, and I will always remember Floyd as kind, genuine, and someone who brought laughter and warmth to those around him.
One memory that came back today made me smile — as kids, a bunch of the boys, Floyd being one of them, were teasing us girls while we were out in a rowboat in the harbour and rocks started flying. Childhood adventures in outport Newfoundland looked a little different back then. It’s memories like those that stay with you for life.
Sending my deepest condolences, love, and prayers to Cora, Jeremy, and all of the Brown and King families. Rest peacefully, Floyd ❤️
Susan King says
