Pat Browning memory ...

[thesmoothedeere]

I miss his posts and knowledge ... Here is a an old message from my e-mail he had sent me . Focus on those last few words from Pat .... I just got back from the doctor's office in Daytona Beach a short bit ago. I am now set to go over to Shand's (Univ of Florida Med Ctr) for a master's consultation on September 14th. I am on Prednisone once again, @ 40 mg daily, and it is helping me with the nagging cough. Now that it has kicked in, I need to begin to ramp down - getting as low in dosage as possible and still have the good effect! Amazing life! More later - Pat

I was absent from this forum for many months, returning just recently... had no idea Pat had died. When? Had he been sick? Is there a link to an obituary?

Always good to talk to.The way to tell how a fella was is by the thoughts of those left behind and as you read here its a good thought.Last year we lost a lot of the good ole' boys and for the most part they wont be replaced.Whats left are mostly new paint and steering wheel fellas

It's like a library suddenly burned to the ground.

It's a by-gone era slipping away.

Never again will we see tractors that outlive two or three generations of owners and mechanics.

Great man to talk with. Wife and I had the pleasure to edit his 1st book on the john deere H.
Great knowledge has gone to rest.

Pat was one in a million. He would always try to help others even if they had no mechanical sence at all!

From three years ago. He was telling a simple story about filling silos:
