Cory Albert Brown
July 21, 1970 – Dec. 19, 2021

It is with great sadness that the family of Cory Brown of Castor, Alta. announce his passing on Dec. 19, 2021, at the age of 51 years.

Cory was the youngest of six children born to Albert and Kay Brown.

Most of his childhood was spent living on the family farm north of Castor and later moving into town where he graduated high school.

Cory remained in the Castor area where he devoted many hours to farming and gardening, as well as working at a variety of occupations.

Cory became a father to three beautiful children who were his most valued treasures in life. Being a father was the pride of his life and the love for his children could always be seen by the proud grin he wore.

Cory’s memory will live on in his mother Kay Brown, his children Payton, Liam and Sadie; granddaughter Kinsley; brothers Raymond, Bill (Tracey); sisters Deborah (Ken), Cathy (Fred), and Angela (Ernie). Also all his nieces and nephews, mother to his children Danielle Nelson, in-laws Bonnie and Darrell and many extended family and friends.

Waiting for him in heaven are his father, Albert; daughter Olivia; grandparents and many relatives and friends.

Donations in Cory’s memory will be gratefully accepted to a trust account held at the ATB Financial Bank in Castor for Cory’s children: Payton, Liam and Sadie; or to a charity of your choice.

A private Celebration of Life was held on Dec. 29, 2021, at the Knox United Church.

Parkview Funeral Chapels & Crematorium were entrusted with the care and funeral arrangements.

Card of Thanks

The family would like to thank Vern Hein for delivering such a heartfelt message during the service and for his continued support to the family; to the Gus Wetter School staff for the lovely luncheon; to Tess Breum for the special support she has given to the family and children; to everyone that sent food, flowers, cards and phone calls, said prayers and came to visit; and to the entire community for their outpouring of support to his family and children during these sorrowful times.

Your kindness is truly appreciated.
