[Tall-Corn] FW: Brian Saucer, rest in peace

[Intesar Duncan]

Good afternoon NFBI family and friends,

As others have said, Brian loved to try out new technology. His Mother,
Barb, told me that he had five different phones, each with its own active
number and password, which they are not able to access, except for the one
he was using. When he was found in his recliner, he was holding it.

Brian loved the Kitchen Sink cookies from Aldies, and every month, when I
brought a snack to our meeting, he would ask me if that's what I had
brought. On the occasions that I had, he would be so happy.

Brian loved to volunteer to be on almost any sub-committee or task force,
and always offered creative ideas.

At our most recent holiday event, Brian was tranquil and serene. He had a
shy smile on the whole time, except when tearing into his hot french fries
with joy alongside his tablemate and partner in crime, Michael. They told
everyone within earshot that hot fries really must be eaten first and fast,
and must not be shared.

Lastly, Brian had made a good start on a full beard. When we told him that
he looked like Santa Claus, he laughed merrily, and said, "That's what my
Mom tells me!" He was very happy that day.

Santa Brian is no doubt looking down on us now and saying, "Ho, ho, ho.
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!"

P S  For anyone who'd like to send a sympathy card to his Mom, her address
is,
Barb Barnett, 6301 Devonshire Drive NE, Cedar Rapids, IA 52402

Brian Saucer's obituary is in the Friday edition of The Cedar Rapids
Gazette , which is today. Below is the link from Cedar Memorial Funeral
Home.
