Brian Faris Obituary

Brian A. Faris

On September 1, 2015, Brian Faris peacefully left this world, transitioning to the next, where he will be waiting. Surely, he is currently searching for that well stocked fishing hole, and fully expecting to finally attain that perfect golf swing; both of which he will explicitly and in detail tell you about when you meet again.

In this world remains his wife, Judy; daughter, Jennifer (Adam); son, Robert; sister, Patricia; mother, Ivy Elizabeth; and the joy of his last six years, grandson, Eli Urbon. Likewise remaining are lifelong friends whose compassion, humor, and love have supported him through the years.

Per his wishes, there will be no funeral or calling hours. However, should you want to honor his memory and pay your respects, he requested you do this: With his name in your heart, perform a random act of kindness. Numerous acts of kindness have been bestowed upon him by loved ones and strangers alike in these past few months and it is time to pay it forward. Remember...if there comes a day when we can't be together, keep me in your heart and I'll stay forever. To leave a special message for the family online, visit www.NewcomerAkron.com.
