BRIAN EDWIN WIMMER

Brian Edwin Wimmer, 41, of Princeton passed away in his sleep at home on Sunday morning April 14, 2019.  Brian was handsome, strong-willed, and charismatic, but, most of all, well-gifted with a generous heart.  His family, friends, and multiple strangers benefited from his generous heart.  He will be always missed by his parents, Bruce and Rita Wimmer; his beloved brother, Joshua and sister-in-law Erika; niece, (ham sandwich) Livia; nephew, Vonn; and maternal grandmother, Odessa Martin.  Brian’s most important person in his life was his son, Brandon.  Brandon rocked his world and meant everything to him.  Brandon’s heart is just like his daddy’s and that made Brian so proud.  Brian has several aunts, uncles, and cousins, and he had assured us that every one of them was important to him and that he loved them all.  His friends were his friends for life through thick and thin, and Brian was always there if needed.  Brian was a lover of literature from kindergarten until his last day.  He read hundreds of books from Dante to Hemingway to poetry.  He placed value on every book and one of his favorite pieces of poetry was “IF” by Rudyard Kipling.  Brian was a 1996 graduate of Princeton Senior High School and a camper salesman for Jennings RV Sales. He was preceded in death by his maternal grandfather, Lake “Ted” Jennings, Jr.; and paternal grandparents, Earl and Virginia Wimmer.  A service to celebrate Brian’s life will be held at 7:00 p.m. Wednesday, April 17, 2019 at Seaver Funeral Home in Princeton.  Friends may call at the funeral home from 6:00 p.m. until the service hour and after the service on Wednesday. In lieu of flowers memorial contributions may be made to St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital, 501 St. Jude Place Memphis, TN  38105.
