Brian James Place, 53 years, passed peacefully at the family home in Jericho after a short illness. He was born April 21, 1971, to Ron and Helen Place of Triangle Virginia.
The family moved to Jericho Vermont in 1975.
Brian was a graduate of Mt Mansfield High School where he excelled in wrestling and cross-country running.
Very early in life Brian acquired a love of the outdoors, so hunting, hiking and working in the woods became second nature to him. He enjoyed fishing with his brother Kevin. (he called him Kever).
He was the best mechanic I have ever seen and was also an accomplished carpenter, welder and bricklayer.
He is survived by his father Ron, sister, Kimberly Place- Faucher of Jeffersonville, brother Kevin, brother-in-law Brad Faucher, and nephew Thomas Faucher.
There will be a Service of Celebration of Life on March 24th at 1:00 PM at the Jericho United Methodist Church on Route 15. (next to Town Hall) The church is handicap accessible. There will be a food and social gathering at the Masonic Lodge across Route 15.
In lieu of flowers, the family suggest a memorial donation in Brian's name to the Jericho/Underhill food shelf, PO Box 65 Jericho Vermont.
Arrangements are in the care of the Cremation Society of Chittenden County, a division of the Ready Family, 261 Shelburne Rd, Burlington Vermont. To send online condolences, please visit www.cremationsocietycc.com

Brian my friend. A lifelong friend. From BB guns in the woods shooting frogs to you keeping my trucks running well in our working life. You are my friend I have so many memories of us. As I write this tears are running down my face. I´m going to miss you. You are my oldest friend, first grade. So glad we had the chance to shape each other´s life together as childhood friends. So many lessons learned from each other. So many lessons learned together. I will never forget them. I will never forget you. God bless you my friend.

Daryl.
