Joy Faye Tims-Brown

Joy Faye Tims-Brown, of San Angelo, Texas, left this world and entered her eternal rest on Saturday, March 22nd, 2025.

Joy was born in Killeen, Bell County, Texas, on July 8th, 1943, to Joseph Edgar Tims and Bertha Agnes Stevens. While living in Kool, Tx., at the age of 11 years old, alongside her two brothers at a revival meeting at the Calvary Baptist Church in Mineral Wells, she accepted the Lord as her Savior. Her family would later move to San Angelo, TX. She graduated from Central High School in 1961.

On March 20, 1970 she married her soul mate and the love of her life, Robert Royce Brown. They were married for 46 years before his death in 2017. Joy was known by all who loved her as, “Bobo”. Though never having been blessed with her own children, she adopted all of her nieces and nephews as her own and loved them dearly. She would talk about them every opportunity she was given. Her family was truly her greatest delight!

“Bobo” was the definition of faithful, loyal, simple, and honest. For 63 years she dedicated her life to her job at the Dunbar Café in San Angelo, TX. She found great joy in serving others and working a job with people that meant so much to her.

She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband Robert Royce Brown, brother Joseph Leon Tims Sr., and nephew Troy David Tims. She is survived by her brother Bill Tims and his partner Vicki Draper, nephew Joe Tims Jr. and wife Barbara, niece Rebecca Callis, nephew Tony Tims and wife AshLeigh, niece Tammy Gully, nephew Kevin Tims and wife Rachel, as well as a host of great nieces, nephews and friends.
