Brian was a loving father, brother, friend and good friend to all. He proudly served in the United States Army from 1977-1978. If you met him, he was sure to tell you about the word of God. His faith could not be shaken. He was tech savvy and knew how to work on a computer when trouble arose. He always started his day with a cup of coffee and spent his afternoons working around his home, making sure it was well manicured. He loved dogs, shooting guns and playing strategy board games with his family. Family is what was most important to him and he loved them unconditionally. His memory will be cherished by all the lives he touched.

A memorial service was held Saturday, February 20th at the New Apostolic Church in DeSoto, at 11 A.M. with Tony Beiser officiating.

Services were under the care and direction of Moore Funeral Home in Potosi.
