Brian Nessler, born on April 11, 1952, in Tremonton, Utah, to Richard T. Nessler and Nola Christensen, led a life rich in love, laughter, and adventure. He passed away on Thursday, May 22, 2025. His life story was written with the ink of compassion, humility, and enduring faith. As a man who cherished the great outdoors, Brian found joy in pheasant hunting, cruising through the wilderness in his ATV side by side, relishing the thrill of deer hunting, traveling, and going on cruises. His love for cars was more than a hobby; it was an art form that he perfected through countless hours of maintenance and detailing. He carried an infectious sense of humor and a spirit of kindness that touched all who were blessed to know him.
Raised in Bear River City, Utah, Brian was a life-long resident who remained deeply rooted in his community. He attended Bear River Elementary School and graduated from Box Elder High School.
Brian was a dedicated employee, having served at Champion Home Building, Holmgren Farm, and Thiokol. He had a distinguished career as a Manufacturing Technician in the Aerospace industry, where he worked meticulously on Ignitor Assembly and Rocket Motors. Though his work was significant, the core of Brian's life was his family. He was a devoted husband to Kimmy Rae Kaminska, with whom he shared life's journey from their marriage on September 22, 1972, in the Logan Temple, until her passing on September 17, 2012. His children: Jared, Benji, Cade, Ulyse, and Taniesha were a beacon of joy and pride in his life. Brian was a man who cherished every moment spent with his loved ones.
He is survived by his children: Jared (Tauna) Nessler, Benji Nessler, Ulyse (Amado) Jimenez, Taniesha (Eric) Willardson; sister: Sandra (Gerald) Smith; 8 grandchildren and 6 great-grandchildren.
