David W. 'Bill' Brown

Submitted by admin on Fri, 10/15/2021 - 10:30

David William (Bill) Brown died Friday, Oct. 8, 2021, at Lexington Estate, Independence. He was born in Council Bluffs on Feb. 17, 1946, to Darold Louis and Norma Maxine (Skelton) Brown, shortly after his father returned from serving in the Navy. Bill was the middle child of Darold and Norma Brown, now deceased. Shortly after he was a year old, Bill contracted polio, leaving him with one partially paralyzed leg. His father worked with him daily, giving him hot baths and massages to bring his leg back to where he could learn to walk. Bill did learn to walk, but he had a severe limp. He did not let this disability stop him from living life fully.

Over the summer, MFL MarMac high school physical education teacher Pat Wille decided to get back into running. The cross country team has been encouraging her efforts, and two weeks ago, surprised Wille with positive signs and cheers while she was running on the track. (Submitted photo)

Many of the signs are now put up outside Pat Wille’s office, offering continuous encouragement. “It was something that meant a lot to me, but I think it meant as much to them,” she said.” (Photo by Audrey Posten)
