My credit cards debt kept me in a complete state of dilemma; this caused my score to drop to very low 424. I already had eviction and several collections including car loan, It was obvious I won’t get approved for anything at the same time I was trying to build my business but everything was very tough and difficult until I came across King Repair on several sites, I also read good reviews about him and did my research , After that , I decided to email him on KINGREPAIR2010@GMAIL.COM,i had to make very serious research because I was afraid of losing my money. Five days after I contacted them and they rendered there service my scores were raised (TU:760, EQ:790, EXP: 773). Credit cards debt appeared as paid, eviction and others were discarded. I was curious at first until I pulled my report and confirmed the great job done. He also helped me build my business credit. How well should I appreciate him for this job well-done other than sharing my experience with you. Hey guys contact King Repair Professional Credit Repair for all sort of credit issues you can also text them on (313)437-2870.

A friend, helper at the rink, a good influence on our boys and others.
There are very few people that match up with Brownie and ALL his goodness.

I'm so sorry that we have lost Brownie from this earth. He was a fine person with a very good sense of humor. I first met Dick in the fifties when I played on his baseball team Willington in the Intercounty league and in the Willimantic Twilight league. He was the manager, coach and a part time player. Later, he managed the Brown-Nassiffs team in the Willimantic Twilight league. Roy Marvel, the league scorekeeper and Chronicle writer dubbed Brownie," The Merry Manipulator" because of his adroitness in moving players in and out of the line up. Those were fun times, that I thoroughly enjoyed and I know Brownie did too! Brownie Rest In Peace!

I'm sad for the loss of a great man. "Brownie" meant so much to UCONN and he helped the hockey team in so many ways - keeping the outdoor rink in tip-top shape, helping us find jobs at the rink and other areas in athletics. I have only fond memories of Brownie during my time at UCONN. He will truly be missed.

It is with sadness that I read about Brownie's passing. By coincidence, just this morning, I was having a conversation with my wife, Nancy, when it got turned around to Mr. Brown. I was telling her about how, as a kid, every Friday at 7 o'clock, there was a knock on the door. everyone would yell, "The Egg Man's here." I went on to inform her of his roll at the skating rink as The Zambonie Driver. I haven't seen him since my own children were young, when I would take them to UCONN football games. Imagine my surprise when I glanced at the obituaries today and learned of his passing.

Rest assured that there are many, many people who will mourn his passing. The Legend of Brownie will endure for a long time to come.

So sorry to hear of Brownie's passing. He was such a wonderful man and to me important part of growing up in Mansfield. We looked in anticipation for his egg truck every week when he would stop and talk with us children. As teenagers hanging out at the skating rink he kept us all in line in his quiet way. I will forever remember him with a great fondness.

I was so saddened to hear of Brownie's passing. I've worked in Athletics for 33 years and used to work for men's ice hockey, so I had many dealings with Brownie. He was a dear, sweet man. May he Rest in Peace.

To the Family of "Brownie". So sorry for your loss. He was a true gentleman, and kind person. He was friends with my dad when he worked at UConn operating the Zamboni. He will truly be missed. May your memories assist you in this difficult time.
