It´s been almost 2 weeks since his visitation/burial and I am still thinking he´s with us. Well, I met Bryan when I first started at the VA ten years ago. He was my best guy friend and shared the Catholic faith. He truly cared about others - and absolutely adored his children. We´d share positive stories everyday. He taught me to remember: God is Good All the Time; And All the Time God is Good, I like to think of his spirit guiding and protecting his friends and family. God Bless Your Kind Soul, Bryan. You are missed.

Here´s some proud Dad photos he sent to me: when Ella was Confirmed and the First Day of School 2025-2026

Len Pratt..Bryan your love and concern for your children stands out for me. I Loved your enthusiasm for Emmitt and Wyatt´s Baseball team and the times we spent helping out the team at practice or in the stands with your Dad as active spectators. Never a dull moment and plenty of fun. Gone put not forgotten.

Lynn and Daniel please accept my deepest condolences. Bryan was always a joy to be around. He spent many times with Nic and the gang playing baseball, riding bikes, together, Cub Scouts, staying overnight at each other´s house. Never did a time go by that.Bryan didn´t have something nice to say to you, he always called everyone by Mrs. or Mr. so respectful to everyone. You are loved Bryan. sending a huge hug to the family, his precious children and wife.

I had the privilege to work with Bryan at both the VA Medical Center and within the Air National Guard. He was always uplifting others and had a great work ethic with his positive attitude. He cared for others and their situations and always had a positive end to a conversation. My condolences to the family. He will be missed.

I had the privilege of working with Bryan in the MN Air National Guard. He was someone who you could always count on to have a positive attitude. He was so proud of his kids and never missed an opportunity to brag about them. He was so genuinely kind and I will miss our drill weekend conversations. My thoughts are with his friends and family!
