Brandon Rogers Prusa, died peacefully May 6, 2025 in his home in Chicago IL. Born on Dec 12, 1984 in Munster, Indiana to proud parents Anthony and Jane Ann Prusa. Brandon spent the majority of his childhood in Ulysses, KS. He later moved to Lawrence KS to attend the University of Kansas. He finished his education at UMKC School of Dentistry. He had successful dental practices in Kansas City then moved to Chicago to expand his businesses. His professional life was marked by a high work ethic and leadership, greatly influencing his colleagues and industry.
Brandon is survived by his husband Luis Gutierrez, father and step mother Anthony and Devalyn Prusa, brother Grant Prusa, and step siblings, Derek Maris, Brittany Zirkle, and Bo Zirkle. He took great pride in his role as guncle and cousin, always ready with encouragement, stories, and laughter.
His mother, Jane Ann Prusa, grandparents Barney and Marie Rogers, and Alphonse and Lorena Prusa, and an uncle Steve Prusa preceded him in death.
A celebration of life will be held at a later time for family and friends.

Call someone (not text) you haven't talked to in a long time
Make amends with someone, someone that u had a falling out with but u miss them
Sing Taylor Swift at the top of your lungs in your living room or speeding down the highway
Go back to church
Be kind to someone that has different beliefs than you do

I just heard about Brandon; I loved the obituary- and had many times wanted to reach out after our falling out- he was very kind and loved his spirit and admired his business skills. It is great to see he had a husband! Rest in peace- you made a difference in peoples lives!

I worked with Dr Prusa when he purchased the office from Dr Purcell, I was even there when he bought his beautiful home, we spent a lot of time together. I always admired Brandon's professionalism, his entrepreneur brain, and willingness to help people in need. Our relationship ended abruptly but I never had any hard feelings. This is a hard and sudden thing for me to deal with. I am praying for his dad, brother and nieces and nephews he loved so much. We had some great times in Lakeview and I will cherish them forever. Rest in peace Brandon. I will miss you
