Zelda Brown Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Apr. 9, 2014.

ZELDA BROWN


Passed away suddenly April 4, 2014 in Toluca Lake. Previously she was a long-time resident of Ann Arbor, MI. She was completely dedicated to her friends, the community, Burbank's Tournament of Roses Float, and loved everyone at Warner Bros. Zelda is survived by her husband Mark and children Ben and Alison. A tribute to Zelda would take pages not paragraphs. So, simply stated … "Zelda always had your back and always pushed you forward." Plans for a memorial celebration are pending.

I was so sad to read of Mrs. Brown's passing away. When you lived in Ann Arbor we would spend so much time at your house. Mrs. Brown was always so welcoming, warm and compassionate. I have fond memories of my childhood coming over and playing with Alison. She was a unique woman and touched many people along the way. My deepest sympathy.
