Brian Gose Obituary

Gose, Brian

The man of many lives has come to rest. Brian had a heart attack recently and died Feb 14th, 2026. He was 53.

Brian had many careers and interests. In high school he loved playing bass in the bands Cigarhead and Sunken Giraffe. He graduated from Beavercreek high school in 1991 and attended University of Cincinnati. He continued his love of the music scene and higher education at Portland State when he moved to Oregon in 1996. Recent years "Spectraphonic" was streaming his own eclectic music on Twitch. Brian's love of cooking landed him in restaurants in Dayton and Portland. He also worked in the tech industry. Brian loved Portland and embraced the term "Keep Portland Weird" He was artistic and enjoyed creating recipes with home grown fruits and veggies that thrived with his green thumb. Most of all he loved his animals. Too many kitties to recall and his king pigeon "Birdle" all gravitated to his love. Brians kind heart will be sorely missed by family and friends.

Brian is preceded in death by both sets of grandparents, uncle Chuck Reams and too many friends. He is survived by his mother Judy Lumby (Sam) father Barry Gose (Brenda) sister Angi Bevers (Mike) aunts Iris Reams and Carole Simmons (Steve) uncle Ed Grilliot and a host of cousins and friends. A private memorial will be held at a later date. In memory, please celebrate your uniqueness.

Am not sure that Angi & Brian will remember; they were very young, but I was their across-the-street neighbor and babysitter, Vickie Applegate. I sure remember Judy and Barry. I'm very sorry for your loss. It sounds like Baby Brian had a good life. God Bless You.

So sorry for your loss. I´m sending love and prayers to Brian´s family, as they navigate the loss of a son and a brother. A life that ended too soon. I remember a night many years ago when Judy, Sam, Angi and I went to a club on Brown street, to hear Brian´s band play. Rest in Peace Brian

To Brian's family, especially his loving mom Judy, sister Angi, and many friends who loved and cared for him so much , I offer my heartfelt sympathy for the sudden loss of your son, brother and friend. I hope that sweet memories of the life you shared will bring some comfort and peace to ease the rough waves of grief and loss. I didn't know Brian but share his love for music, cooking and animals and perhaps that is some kind of knowing. May you rest in peace Brian.
