Brown-Soprano, Joseph Edward

Joseph Edward Brown-Soprano, 42, of Pulaski, VA passed away Friday, June 22, 2018. He was born May 3, 1976 at Radford, VA, the son of Henry Brown and Lou Ann Cromer Branham.

He loved animals. He fed the deer every day and had each of them named. He had sixteen chickens, each named, with a special rooster named “Double D”. He was considered a loner who loved sports of all kinds, especially his football team Kansas City Chiefs, baseball and NASCAR. He was especially noted for his love of his Ford truck.

He was preceded in death by his father, Henry Brown and his paternal grandparents, Harley & Dessie Brown.

Left to cherish his memory are his wife, and love of his life since he was eight years old, Carolyn Marie Francesca Roselina Soprano; his parents, Lou Ann & George Branham; one brother, James Brown; his step-children, Katarina Soprano and William Wallace; his sixteen chickens including “Double D” and his special dogs, Roxy and Kasey.

Per his wishes, he has been cremated and no services are planned.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial donations be made directly to A. Vest & Sons Funeral Home, 2508 Walkers Creek Valley Rd., Pearisburg, VA 24134, in his honor to help with funeral expenses.

The Soprano family is in the care of A. Vest & Sons Funeral Home, White Gate, avestandsons.com, (540) 921-2985.
