Mason Issiah Brown, affectionately known as “May May,” was born on March 11, 2005, in Bartlesville, Oklahoma. He tragically passed away on May 30, 2024, in Collinsville, Oklahoma. Mason was a graduate of Nowata High School and took pride in being an Ironman. He actively participated in school activities and was working to complete the HVAC program at Oklahoma Technical College, eagerly looking forward to beginning his career. He attended Living Word Church in Nowata where he was baptized his senior year of high school.
 
Known for his vibrant personality and loving nature, Mason will be remembered as the life the party. He had a curious mind and was always asking questions. Mason had a heart of gold and was ever ready to lend a helping hand or save someone in need. His infectious joy at receiving something new and his eagerness to share that happiness with others exemplified his kind-hearted spirit. One of his favorite pastimes was napping in the front room with the family Dachshund nestled beside him.
