Macksene Brown, 96, of Vidor, passed away on Tuesday, March 25th, 2025, at Collier Park Senior Living in Beaumont. A native of Salt Lake City, Utah, and a longtime resident of Vidor, Macksene dedicated her life to her faith and her family.

As a devoted member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Vidor, she found great joy in serving others and nurturing the bonds of family. A loving homemaker, her greatest happiness came from the time spent with her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.

She was welcomed into eternity by her husband, Freddie Brown, and her children, Freddie Brown Jr., George Brown, and Marty Johanson.

Macksene’s unwavering faith, selfless love, and gentle spirit will be deeply missed but never forgotten, as her influence lives on in the countless lives she touched.
