Brian was baptized and confirmed in the Lutheran faith at Saint John Lutheran Church in Mineola. He attended Glenwood Community Schools and graduated with the Class of 1979.

Brian was injured in an automobile accident in February 2018 and had been confined to a wheelchair since. His dear friends and classmates rallied to support him through his time in the hospital and rehabilitation. His friends were very dear to him, always.
