He grew up in Davison where he attended school and graduated in 1975. Brian went on to work for the family business after graduation. In Michigan and Minnesota he helped to manage and supervise over 20 Little Caesars stores and was faithfully dedicated to his job until the time of his diagnosis. Brian was active in the community and was a proud member of the Optimist Club, Knights of Columbus, Elks Club and an advocate for MDS. He actively participated in raising money and awareness for MDS, appearing on numerous TV telethons and starting the Genesee County Spagetti on Ice. But for all of his endeavors, Brian was most proud of his family. His girls meant the world to him and he would bend over backwards for them. What a great father he was! He was also very proud of his wife, Jan, whom he had been in love with since the day they met, and were married for over 28 years. Everywhere Brian went, he knew someone. And if he didn't, he was quick to make friends. Brian knew no strangers. He touched and changed many lives. The way Brian lived his life will forever be reflected through his family, his girls!

Very sorry to learn of your loss; I met Brian a lifetime ago when he gave me the opportunity to work the Flint area stores for a bit. He was a wonderful, careing man with a great zest for life. He made a difference in my life and many more.

Sheroski Family and Friends,
My thoughts and prayers are with you. I just learned of Brian's passing and it brought a flood of memories. I was hired by Brian when he first started the stores in Rochester, MN. back in the 1980's. What a fun, energetic, driven person he was. Look out heaven - Brian is going to stir things up. Although it has been many years since I last saw him, I do think of those days and of Brian often and what he taught me about business, life and people.

My memories of Brian are more than thirty years old, when we were both very young and did not know it.
Brian was a friend, when a friend was needed. He was a boss, when it was required. He was a leader, a cohort and worker.
I learned so much from Brian, David and the rest of the Sheroski family, I owe all of them a great debt for the lessons they taught.
My prayers for Brian's daughters, wife, brothers, sisters, mother and father. God bless all of you and grant you the peace...

To the Sheroski family, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I "met" Brian through his sisters: Sheila and Sharon at Baker College. I just learned of his passing today when he was mentioned at mass. My prayers are with his family at this time of sorrow.
Sincerely,

Man, if there were a cure for an illness, for every smile caused by Brian, we would all live forever. As he will in so many hearts. It's an honor to have known such a wonderful person. Brian hired me when I was just a kid. He taught me more about life than anyone. Brian has inspired so many of us to do more, to do better and to try harder. If we didn't know how - he showed us. Brian held a heart of gold. He was smart & silly & always took the pressure out of bad days. There are a...
