Brian Charles Rau

Dear Rau Family,
I am sorry to hear of your loss. I did not know of Mr. Rau's death until today, when a student mentioned it during class. I have had the honor to teach both Ashley and Jessica at WHS and know that they are strong girls, beautiful young ladies, who will continue to succeed in life and make their father proud. My family and I will keep you in our prayers. May you be comforted and have peace in your souls during the days to follow. In Christian love, Reese Whitcher

I only had the opportunity to work with Brian for a short time as I traveled between Arrowhead and Busse but he will never be forgotten. Brian was a joy to work with - someone who could make you laugh - but was also hard working, intelligent and of the highest character. He always talked of his family with obvious love, pride and joy. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

To Amy and the Rau Family:

I had the distinct pleasure and honor of working with Brian at Arrowhead. Brian's ethics, honesty, and integrity were critical components to the survival of the company during stressful times. Sharon and I are saddened by your loss, and you are in our thoughts and prayers.

I am deeply saddened. I had the pleasure of working with Brian during his association with Busse and Arrowhead Conveyor where I admired his honesty, integrity, ambition, along with his humor. During my own tragedy I experienced his sensitive and compassionate side. His devotion and pride for his family was very evident whenever he spoke of them. He used to say that he was ‘out numbered’ at home but deep inside you knew he wouldn’t have it any other way. I consider myself blessed because...

Rau Family,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. My daughter attends ASU with Jessica and we are so sorry for your loss.
My God wrap his arms around you and your family and hold you tight.

Love In Christ,

Kayle, Brooke and Brice Hardy

Dear Rau Family~
I am so sorry for your loss. I worked for Brian at Arrowhead Conveyor and had the highest respect for him.

Brian's passing is such sad news. I worked with Brian for 7 year at Busse and have many great (and funny) memories of him. Brian was a great leader, he genuinely cared about his employees and co-workers, and he was always ready to have a laugh by picking on us or sharing a funny story. The stories he shared about his home life showed how much he loved and enjoyed his family. My thoughts are with you Amy, Jessica, Ashley and the Rau family. May your faith and memories comfort you and help...

My deepest sympathies at this difficult time. I know Brian will live forever in your hearts. May you find peace and joy in your memories of him.

I worked with Brian at Arrowhead/Busse . Brian was always a pleasure to work with and who's Honesty and Integrity was second to none. I enjoyed the days we discussed Soccer and the joy each of us experienced in coaching our daughters in the game.
May God Bless and give his family strength during this difficult time.
