Bryan was a proud and dedicated Farmers Insurance Agent since 1996. Bryan’s pride and joy were his 10 grandchildren, never missing ball games, birthdays, or any other special event in their lives. They brought him true happiness. Bryan will be remembered for his teasing jokes, his unfailing work ethic, his generous smile, his willingness to help everyone and anyone, his uncanny ability to fix or build anything and his love for music and muscle cars of all eras.

We are so sorry to hear of Bryans passing. He will be missed by many but is now in God’s loving arms and free from pain and suffering. Love and prayers to all his family and friends.
Nancy and family, sympathy from all of us. Brian always was nice and cordial the few times together. I am sure he will be missed!
Bryan was the oldest cousin on our side, his mom, Cheryl. I was the third oldest following his sister Shannon. So Bryan was our ‘Ring Leader’ you could say. He would tell us what to do and we’d, of course, do it. Funny things – things we’d get into trouble for later,. But, it was Bryan, so, it was always okay. That smile always got him out of trouble. Cheers Bryan – see you again soon!
