Brian Berry Sr. Obituary

Visit the Rill Chapel Life Tribute Center Funeral Home & Crematory website to view the full obituary.

Brian Timothy Berry Sr., born on October 30, 1956, was a beacon of joy and compassion the lives he touched. He departed this world on September 17, 2025 leaving behind a legacy rich in love, kindness, and laughter.

A proud graduate of South Kitsap High, Brian began his career as a logger, embodying a work ethic that mirrored his dedication to family and community. His warm heart and generous spirit were known to all; he was the kind of man who would give you the shirt off his back if you needed it. His kind and compassionate nature drew people to him, making him a cherished friend and confidant.

Brian found immense joy in coaching and watching his children play sports. He took great pride in their achievements, celebrating not just their victories but also the lessons learned through the spirit of competition. As a doting grandfather, his enthusiasm extended to his grandkids, and he delighted in their sporting endeavors, fostering a love for sports that would be passed down through generations.

An avid sports fan, Brian had a particular fondness for the Mariners and the Seahawks. He would often be seen cheering passionately for his teams, sharing the highs and lows of the game with those around him. His love for sports was only rivaled by his love for adventure; Brian especially cherished day trips with his beloved wife, exploring the beauty of the world around them. These moments spent together created a tapestry of memories that will forever remain in the hearts of those who loved him.

Brian's great sense of humor was one of his most endearing traits. He had an uncanny ability to bring a smile to everyone's face, often lighting up a room with his laughter. His spirit will live on in the stories shared about him and in the lessons he imparted about kindness and generosity.

As we remember Brian Timothy Berry Sr., we honor a man whose life was a beautiful testament to love, friendship, and fun. His generous heart and infectious laughter will truly be missed, yet his spirit will continue to inspire all who were fortunate enough to have known him.
