Suggested edit: Brown. - Carreno, daughter of the late John D. and Mary K. (Martin) Brunk, was born Jan. 18, 1901, at Bridgewater, Va. After over eight years of illness with tuberculosis she quietly fell asleep Nov. 5, 1934; aged 33 y. 9 m. 19 d. Her father, a baby sister and a brother preceded her in death. She moved with her parents to Goshen, Ind., in 1906. On Dec. 24, 1924, she was married to J. Howard Brown. In 1919 she graduated from the Goshen high school. She spent one year at Goshen College and in 1925 she was graduated from the American Conservatory of Music, Chicago. She, with her father, taught music in Elkhart from 1919 until 1926. She and her husband spent several years in New Mexico, and as her health improved, she again took up her task of teaching music. After three years she returned to her home at Waterford, 2 miles south of Goshen, Ind. Everything was done that could be done for her, but as time went on she grew weaker and weaker until she fell asleep. She is survived by her husband, her mother, two brothers (J. Milton of Goshen, Niemann A. of Hagerstown, Md.) and 3 sisters (Hermion - Mrs. Dorsa Yoder of Ft. Wayne, Ind., Fanny Brunk and Mary Brunk of Goshen). She united with the Mennonite Church at the age of 12. At the time of her death, she was a member of the First Methodist Church of Goshen. Funeral services were conducted at the home by L. G. Jacobs, assisted by C. L. Graber. The remains were laid to rest in the Violet Cemetery at Waterford.
