Kane Brown's Grandfather Dies At Age 65

Kane Brown's grandfather, Stephen Allen Brown, died at age 65 on Friday, September 11. According to his obituary, Stephen, who was a lifelong resident of Chattanooga, North Georgia, died in a local hospital.

Stephen is described as a "loving and devoted husband, father, brother, grandfather, and great-grandfather that will be truly missed by all who knew him." He enjoyed fishing and spending time with his family and friends. Stephen is survived by his wife of 17 years, Edy Brown, his daughter Tabatha Brown, his grandchildren Kane Brown and CJ Cordell, great-grandchildren Brayden Cordell and Kingsley Brown, brother Johnny Brown and sisters Wanda Sue Campbell and Linda Morrison.

Brown has not commented on his grandfather's death. A memorial reception is planned for Stephen on Tuesday, September 15. Memorial contributions may be made to the American Heart Association or the American Cancer Society.
