Brian Scott Soules, a loving father, son, brother, and friend, passed away on February 12, 2025, in Howell, MI, at the age of 44. He was born on April 26, 1980, in Detroit, MI, the son of Tim and Michele Soules.
A proud graduate of Saline High School's class of 1998, Brian carried the lessons learned and friendships forged throughout his life. His love for cooking was unparalleled; he enjoyed smoking meat and experimenting with diverse recipes, always eager to share his latest creation with friends and family. Music was another of Brian's great loves, and he appreciated all genres. His open-mindedness to different styles and sounds made every moment with him an opportunity to discover something new.
Camping was another activity that brought Brian immense joy, especially when joined by his son, Bentley. The bond they shared during their adventures was a source of strength and happiness for both. Brian's devotion to his son was evident in every aspect of his life, as he cherished every opportunity to explore and create memories together.
Brian will be best remembered for his loving nature. He had an uncanny ability to make those around him feel valued and loved. His infectious laugh, his willingness to lend a helping hand, and his unwavering support for his loved ones are just a few of the traits that will be sorely missed.
Brian is survived by his cherished son, Bentley Nummerdor; loving parents, Tim and Michele Soules; siblings, Tim (Erin) Soules, Sean (Melanie) Soules, Michael (Amber) Soules, and Sara (Brent) Newer; and many nieces, nephews, and other loving family members. He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Willard and Helen Soules and Richard and Marguerite Labadie.
Cremation has taken place and no public services will be held at this time.
