On this page I'll describe Rufus Brown's life and career: the successes and hopes, the joys and sorrows. This is a work in progress...please let me know your feedback (positive or negative). Thanks!


Rufus was a 31 years old, living in Elgin Illinois with his wife and two daughters.  He was a teacher at a small community college west of the city and held a master of music degree in composition.  Rufus had composed and performed in many different styles:  from classical to rock, jazz to blues, etc.  While Rufus the person is gone, his music and art still live on.
