Richard A. Brown - Autobiography

Paula and I celebrated our 44th wedding anniversary in March. We have been in Huntsville, AL for 35 years where I have been a Family Physician. I plan to practice at least three more years before I retire. Paula has been very active in our community activities. Most recently she was chairperson of our Visitors and Tourism Bureau. She has also spearheaded efforts at our church, founded the floral guild and helping with the interior decoration efforts. We have two grown children and two grandchildren. Our daughter, Allyson, is a plastic surgeon in Atlanta and has two precious children; Emma Stewart Maske, age 4 and Jamison Davis Maske, age 2 ½. Her husband, Jim Maske, is an account manager at Goldman Sachs. Our son, Christopher, is single and lives and works in New York City as a photographic artist and computer software consultant. We have a lakeside home in Tennessee about an hour away. We spend time there when we can and enjoy the atmosphere. I love to get out on the water whether the fish are biting or not. Paula has developed a wildflower and native plant garden. She sponsors a summer camp for our grandchildren and grand nieces and nephews.
