It is with shock-filled sadness that Maranathan Academy pays tribute to the life of Earnest "Snake" Brown, former Dean of Academics and Compliance. The Academy was privileged to have Mr. Brown's dynamic presence for several years. All who labor and study at Maranathan Academy (currently or in the past], know what a tremendous loss his passing is, not only for the academic community but for the sports world as well. Dean Brown, as he was affectionately known during his time at Maranathan, was the epitome of a man with a heart for people. Whether he was feeding the homeless or serving as a volunteer coach, Dean Brown truly had a love for people. Our hearts and prayers go out to his family. All of us who knew and loved Dean Brown must try to take comfort in the extraordinary impact his life made on all who were blessed to encounter him. With gratitude for having been blessed to work with him, the Academy shares photos from the occasion he and his fellow UA team members were celebrated during the halftime of a UA basketball game. The Academy also shares the link to an article that was done on Dean Brown during his time at Maranathan Academy, which provides a mere glimpse into the incredible heart he had for education and for people. :-(
