Vincent Odin Brown
Vincent Odin Brown age 5, of Quincy died on Monday, December 7, 2020 in Blessing Hospital.
He was born in Quincy on December 13, 2014 a son of Joseph and Jennifer (Wheeler) Brown. Odin was a Kindergarten student at Baldwin Elementary School.
Odin was a “heart warrior”—he was fighting every precious day, but most people never knew this because he was so energetic and fearless!
Odin loved being outside swinging, jumping, and climbing. He was a light to anyone who would meet him, proof that true love needed no words. Just his smile could melt all the world’s problems away.
He also was a big fan of The Octonauts which he liked to watch while enjoying his favorite snack, Sweet & Spicy Doritos and if he could get away with it a drink of his mom’s or grandpa’s soda.
In addition to his parents, Joseph and Jennifer, survivors also include:
Three siblings, Lydia Wheeler, Abigail and Dylan Brown.
His maternal grandma, Danya Wheeler, paternal grandmother, Dorothy McHatton and paternal great-grandmother, Leona Dietrich all of Quincy. Aunts and Uncles, Kristin (Todd) Eyler, Erin (Bryan) Dusch all of Quincy; Charles (Amber) Wheeler of Little Rock, AR. Jennifer (Brian) Myers; James McHatton and John McHatton all of Quincy. Many cousins also survive.
Odin was preceded in death by his maternal grandpa, Charles Wheeler and paternal grandpa, Paul Dietrich.
