, 43, born Jan. 24, 1971, was taken from us on Dec. 3, 2014. 

Brian was born in Miami, AZ but was raised and lived in Superior, AZ.  He graduated from Superior High School in 1988.  Brian then went on to graduate from UTI obtaining his mechanic certification.  He pursued his career in automotive repair starting with Sears, moving to Horne Motors in Globe, AZ then Earnhardt Ford in Chandler, AZ. 

From there Brian was ready to take his leap of faith and open his own business and become the owner and operator of Brian’s Automotive Repair in Chandler.

Brian was a hard worker and was dedicated to his family and friends.  He loved the outdoors: hunting, fishing, camping, quads, spending time with family and friends. 

Brian is survived by his wife, Becky; sons, Jonathan and James; daughters, Amy and Danielle; niece, Jennifer; brother, Wayne; sister, Robin; and father, Landis.  In addition to his immediate family, Brian is loved by many friends who were family.

A memorial will be held Saturday, Dec. 13, at 1 p.m. at The Magma Club 34 Kumpke Court, Superior, AZ 85173.

Potluck dinner to immediately follow services. For information about bringing food please contact Deborah Townsend at (520) 827-5558.
