Brian Kent Dinkel

I just heard of Brians passing and I am sure there is a huge void in his family's lives. He was a big personality in the late 70's for sure!
Wanted to share a couple memories.
Juanita high school lunch time consisted of us (Chris ,Brian, Sue, Kathleen, myself and sometimes Rick) with sack lunches in hand, Hopping into Chris's black Rivera, And heading up to Kingsgate to watch "Get smart" while dining on PB and J's.
I don't know how many people know this, But, Brian could make...

I worked with Brian here at Boeing. It was a real tragedy to hear of his passing. He was always sharp, fun, and funny to be around and will certainly be missed.

I would like to express my deepest sympathy to Nina and the Dinkel family. Brian was a great guy! Funny, bighearted, and truly a great artist. I would like to thank Bill, Rick, and Melanie for putting together a great memorial last Saturday. Hopefully, But healing can begin and the memories last forever.

I am so sad for you nina,I can,t even realize your griefh or

battle of the bands Robert Frost elementary school, Brians band featuring Rick Rice on drums, Bill Cotterell and a couple others, beat our bands only song purple haze with hang on sloopy and little bit of soul. we were allowed to play our chord patterns twice since we had no singer or second song, not much has changed. worked with Brian at harbor point,witty and funnier than ever. sorry to hear he passed away.

Brian was one of the nicest people I have ever known! He was a Super knowledgeable co-worker with a Great Attitude! As a personal friend, you could not have found better; He was caring, funny, entertaining, thoughtful and had a love for Nina that made them the Soul Couple that they were. RIP Brian ~ I will miss you

Bran and I worked together for many many years many good conversations, laughs, smiles and his positive energy radiated through him. I will miss him deeply

Oh my little buddie Nina; what can I say??Our hearts are so sad. Brian was a special kind of guy and we may not have gotten together often but the times we did were GREAT. He will be missed but never forgotten. Prayers, thoughts and love to all of his family and a very special hug to you Nina my special little friend.
