Brian Keith Pruden, age 54, passed away in Hinckley, Ohio. He was born on July 17, 1970, in Mayfield Heights, Ohio to parents Myron L. and Susan J. (Sterling) Pruden. Brian enjoyed spending time outdoors, whether it was at a shooting range or just out hiking with Penny and Rosco he was in his element. He loved bonfires with friends and family and had the most loving heart for others especially with his many 'Pruden Ponderances' on Facebook. A great dad, brother, and friend he will be greatly missed.
He is survived by his loving children, Nicole (Joe) Light, Ashley Pruden (Devin Cart), Marissa Pruden, and Zachary Pruden; his parents, Myron and Susan Pruden; his brother, Bradley (Cheryl) Pruden; his nephews, Dustin Evans, Brendan Pruden; along with his devoted dog, Penny; and many dear friends.
Here are a few of Brian's Pruden Ponderances... "The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold." Psalms 18:2. & "No matter what happens in life, be good to people. Being good to people is a wonderful legacy to leave behind."
A Memorial Service will be held on Friday, May 9, 2025, at 12:00 p.m. at Heartland Community church, 3700 Weymouth Road, Medina, Ohio 44256. The family will receive friends during Visitation for one hour prior to the service, from 11:00 to 12:00 p.m.

Dearest Susie , Ron. Bradley, and entire family,

I am heartbroken to hear of sweet Brian´s passing. I knew him as such a kind, quiet son, cousin, nephew and father. I know my sister loved him deeply and believe she and his dear Grandma Sterling met him and are with him in heaven. Keeping you all in my prayers at this very difficult time.
Love,
Theresa Maitland
