Brian Andrew Dunn was a husband, son, brother, uncle, nephew, cousin, and friend. He left this world suddenly on Tuesday, August 24, 2021, at his Niagara Falls, New York residence at the young age of 43.
Brian was raised in Burlington, Ontario where he graduated from Nelson High School, and earned his bachelor's degree from Ryerson University in Toronto. He began working at the Four Seasons Hotel and Resorts in Newport Beach, California and later at the Four Seasons in Atlanta, Georgia. He then returned back to Toronto and was employed at the Royal York Hotel, finishing his career in banking at Northwest Bank in Niagara Falls, New York, where he lived a quiet life with his husband, Jeffery Anaclerio.
Brian had a love of politics, debates, music, and all animals. He spent many days researching and becoming informed of American and Canadian politics. He treasured his friends and family, even from a distance, they were never far away from his thoughts. He was a Trekie until the end, an avid reader in his youth and enjoyed educating himself on any topic he could discuss with anyone who would engage in conversation.
One thing that everyone who encountered Brian will remember, is his beautiful, infectious smile and his joyful 'best laugh ever'. Brian could light up a room when he entered it with a twinkle in his eyes, engaging anyone in his path and make them laugh and feel very special to him. It was important to him to envelop people into his world and become part of theirs. His kindness and empathy were evident to those closest to him and even those who met him for a minute.
Brian is survived by his parents Jerry and Patricia (Gray) Dunn, spouse, Jeff Anaclerio; his sister, Stacey (Terry) Ingram, and is the uncle of Ava, Wyatt, and Isabelle Ingram. He is also survived by many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
