Dr. Brown and his brother-in-law, Dr. Herman B. Nevans, purchased the Sarah Preston Home located on Preston Street, formerly operated as a girls' dormitory by Livingston Academy, and opened the Lady Ann Hospital in Livingston, TN in 1937. This hospital, named for Mrs. Ann Brown, wife of Dr. Brown and sister of Dr. Nevans, was operated for a few years and was the only hospital in the Upper Cumberland section, until World War II, when Dr. Nevans entered military service as a surgeon.

Gone but not forgotten
