Wesley Ray Brown, age 36 of Malvern, died unexpectedly on Monday, May 19, 2025 at his home.  He was born on November 10, 1988 in Little Rock to Mark Brown and Pamela Haley Brown. Wes was reared and educated in Malvern and Hot Springs.  Most recently, Wes was a sales representative for AT&T.  He was a Christian.  Wes collected coins, enjoyed going to arts and crafts shows, and was fond of shopping.  He loved giving.  He was a thoughtful and sentimental man, and was happiest when helping others.  Family meant a great deal to him, and he doted on his siblings and his nieces and nephews.  He found joy in collecting things which he could repurpose, for someone else's benefit.  A happy man, his smile conveyed to those around him that he felt blessed beyond measure to be in their presence.

Wes is survived by his twin, Erica Brown (Shauna Walton) of Malvern; his parents, Pamela Parker of Hot Springs, and Mark Brown (Rebecca) of Lake Hamilton; his brother, Colt (Terri) Brown, his sister, Savannah Brown, all of Hot Springs; grandparents, Lois and Johnny Bolts of Bismarck; nieces and nephews, Ian, Aiden, Cynthia, Peyton, Titus, River, and Bo (Megan); uncles, John Haley and Mike Brown, who are amongst many extended family and friends; his best friend, Labon Gilbert; and his canine companion, Riley.
