In Loving Memory of Bryan Louis Kaplan (Age 52)

Bryan Louis Kaplan was many things to many people-devoted husband, loving father, cherished brother, proud uncle and unforgettable friend-but above all, he was a man who brought joy wherever he went.

At the center of Bryan's life was the love he shared with his wife, Tiffany. Their story began nearly 30 years ago, when Tiffany moved into her first home and was welcomed to the neighborhood by Bryan, who offered a helping hand-at the gentle nudging of his mother and sisters. That simple act of kindness sparked a love that would grow into nearly 27 years of marriage, built on friendship, teamwork, laughter and unwavering devotion. Together, they created a life rooted in love, partnership and shared dreams.

Bryan was a deeply proud father to Sydney, Joshua and Jadon. He never missed a moment that mattered. From football fields and basketball courts to cross-country meets, track events and concerts, Bryan was always there cheering the loudest, supporting endlessly, and showing his children what unconditional love looks like. Known as the ultimate "Fun Dad," he was always ready for a good time, a laugh, or a spontaneous adventure.

As a brother, Bryan shared a lifelong bond with Kristen, Katy and Kandace. As an uncle-affectionately crowned the greatest "Dunckle" (Daddy Uncle) -he adored his nieces and nephews Kyle, Amber, Anthony, Alyssa, Kameron, Karson, Amelia and Audriana, bringing humor, warmth, and unmistakable joy into their lives. He had a gift for giving nicknames, each one a reflection of his affection and the special way he made people feel seen and loved.

Bryan never met a stranger. He was the life of the party no matter where he was, instantly connecting with people through his warmth, humor and genuine interest in others. He was loved by everyone who knew him-and by many who had just met him.

A proud fan of the Detroit Lions and Tigers, Bryan also found joy boating, traveling to tropical destinations, and savoring his favorite Mediterranean and Chinese foods. His favorite color-blue-felt fitting for a man whose presence was both calming and vibrant.

One of Bryan's greatest joys was working side by side on household projects with Tiffany. Their biggest and most meaningful endeavor was designing and building their home in New Boston-a true reflection of their partnership, shared vision and love. Recently becoming empty-nesters, Bryan and Tiffany were eagerly looking ahead to the next chapter of life, dreaming of new adventures and planning a future as part-time digital nomads-ready to explore the world together.

Bryan's legacy lives through the countless lives he touched, the children he coached and encouraged, the laughter he sparked and the love he gave so freely. He leaves behind a family forever changed by his absence, yet endlessly grateful for the memories, lessons and joy he shared.

Bryan Louis Kaplan will be remembered for his big heart, his boundless energy and his unwavering devotion to family. Though he is gone too soon, his spirit lives on-in blue skies, in cheering crowds, in shared laughter and in every moment lived fully and with love.
