They always worked together as a team. Bryan was a very dedicated girl dad. He was very involved and present in his daughters' lives. He always put his wife and children's needs before his own. He was kind to everyone he met. Bryan's passion was playing basketball, running, attending basketball games and track meets. In his college years, Bryan loved playing basketball with his dear friends and teammates, "The Ultimates". He was a dedicated Hawkeye fan who bled black and gold. He also had a love for numbers and math. Bryan spent much of his time watching sporting events, following politics, and reading about presidents. The thing Bryan loved most of all was watching his daughters' extracurricular events and sharing his favorite music in his truck with his girls.

The most important thing to him was his family. Memorial donations may be directed to the family.
