WILLIAMS, Ariz. — As the “Baby Boom” phenomenon was thundering across the United States in the 1950’s, the timber town of McNary, Arizona, located on the cuff of the Fort Apache Indian Reservation, raised its population by one with the arrival of a healthy baby boy by the name of Kim Brown.

Charlie Nixon arrived in northern Arizona in 1951, he was two years old at the time and had recently lived as a resident of the great state of Ohio.

For the last 62 years Brown and his family have called Williams, Arizona home and throughout the course of his life, Brown not only strived to improve his community, but the lives of those within it as well.
