It is with heavy hearts that we want to share that our beloved Terry Arnold has been sent home to his Lord & Savior. Terry worked at Brown’s for 47 years serving customers from around the area. Mike & Terry are what made Brown’s Barbershop what it is today. Sue, Mike, Luke & myself are extremely thankful to be able to carry on the tradition they built. We hope we make you guys proud. We want to extend our deepest condolences to Terry’ s wife Nancy, his children, and grandchildren. Thank you Terry for all the stories, the encouragement, and teaching us how to do the best flat tops! Rest in Heaven.
