Truly her mother’s child! If ever a child grew up to emulate a parent, it was her.
Tiffany brought three amazing children into this world. However, her five, soon to
be six grandchildren, were the joy of her life. She supported her children in all their
activities and all their pursuits, whether it was running track, playing basketball,
football, volleyball or band. Tiffany was energetic in spite of her illness of twenty-six
years. She not only cheered for her children, but all of the students. She invested
much time and resources into the lives of students by tutoring, tending, and taking
care of their needs; offering wise counseling, or sharing the truth in love. Students at
Dunbar (now J.M.J.) fondly referred to her as “Mom” very respectfully. It was
amazing how she remembered over 95% of the students' names. When Tiff spoke,
everyone listened, even the teachers. Tiffany respected each student regardless of
their shortcomings, treating them with love and understanding. However, there were
several students she invested in a little more by caring for their personal needs. When
Tiffany befriended you, she was your friend.
Before working for Fort Worth I.S.D. as a Data Clerk, she worked as a Senior
Secretary for the Office of the Sr. Vice-President of Finance & Administration, Dan
Williams, and Vice-President John Hall at UTA (University of Texas in Arlington).
She always thanked Mrs. Phonecia Shelton, for giving her the chance to prove her
diverse levels of skills. One of Tiffany’s duties was to show VIPs around the campus.
She was especially elated at meeting Forest Whitaker and showing him around
campus.
Preceding her in glory is her father, Lee Edward Brown; paternal grandparents:
Lawrence Edward Brown and Katie Lee Harris Brown; maternal grandparents: Lee
Andrew Doty and Johnnie Wells Doty; uncles: Grady Brown and Ronald Brown.

Carrington Terry; son: Tabias Terry, Jr.; granddaughters: K’Lyn Benson, Siani Terry,
soon to be Jhene Armstead; grandsons: Legend Terry, Kaden Montgomery, and Malik
