Brian Souraphol Obituary

Published by Legacy on Nov. 4, 2025.
Brian Bouan Souraphol, loving husband, father, grandfather, brother, and cherished family member, 78, passed away peacefully on Sunday, November 2, 2025 at 6:21 PM, surrounded by loved ones.

Born in Nong Bok, Laos, Brian was raised with deep values of humility, dedication, and compassion. He pursued education with purpose and began his career in medicine, driven by a sincere desire to care for others.

With courage and hope for a brighter future, he made the journey to the United States, where he built a new life rooted in opportunity, stability, and love. Through hard work and unwavering resilience, he provided his family with a foundation full of possibility. His greatest pride was giving his children and grandchildren the future he dreamed of.

Brian was known for his gentle spirit, warm smile, and kind heart. He found joy in simple and meaningful moments gardening, watching soccer and football, and spending time with his family. His presence brought calm, comfort, and warmth to everyone he met.

He is survived by his loving wife Davone, daughters Oravanh Souraphol and Buaworn Souraphol Hisel, her husband Jerremy Hisel. He leaves behind his beloved grandchildren: Tydah Souraphol (26), Jayce Hisel (8), and Savanhy Hisel (5), who brought immense pride and joy to his life.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Haem and Reot Souraphol, and siblings Seebangh, Soat, Onchanh, Yoat, and Manybaot Souraphol.

He is also survived by his siblings Banh, Nantar, and Khambangh Souraphol, all of whom carry forward his spirit and memory. They are surrounded by their spouses and children, who also honor Brian's life and legacy.

A private viewing and cremation will be held in accordance with Buddhist tradition. The family welcomes prayers, love, and peaceful thoughts as they honor his journey and celebrate the life of a man who gave so much and loved so deeply.

May his spirit continue in peace, and may his path be filled with light.
