Who was Garrison Brown?

Garrison Brown, known for being the son of Janelle Brown from the reality TV series TLC drama titled Sister Wives, was a beloved member of the Brown family. He was known for his warmth, kindness, and gentle spirit. 

According to Us Weekly, Janelle Brown informed law enforcement that her son, Garrison, had sent a message to a group chat involving individuals associated with the Brown family.

The message reportedly expressed sentiments of longing for past times: "I want to hate you for sharing the good times. But I can’t. I miss these days," Garrison wrote.

Although Janelle was not part of the chat, she became aware of Garrison's message and reached out to him. She told authorities that she had a brief conversation with her son before he stopped responding.

Afterward, Janelle sought assistance from her other children to check on Garrison's well-being. Gabriel Brown, one of her sons, volunteered to visit Garrison's residence in Flagstaff, Arizona. Upon discovering Garrison's body, Gabriel promptly contacted the police department for assistance. Before Garrison's death, he and his father had strained relations. Kody clashed with Garrison and Gabriel regarding the patriarch's stringent COVID-19 regulations.

While Kody, Gabriel, and Garrison were not on good terms, Janelle expressed concerns about her sons' mental well-being during the filming of season 18 of the TLC reality series in 2022. In November 2023, Janelle shared an update on where Kody stood with his sons and was hopeful they would make amends in the future.

"Even if they maybe don’t reconcile, but they come to a peace because I feel like when there’s static in relationships, especially in a parental relationship, it does affect your life,” Janelle exclusively told Us in November 2023. “It does affect them when they don’t have a good [relationship] with their dad. So, I’m hoping that in the future, things can get better,” she said.
