You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
Please accept our sincere condolences on your loss.

Jerry & Vickie, My deepest condolances for your loss. There is nothing more devastating than losing a loved one. Having lost Judye six months ago, I know the pain you are experiencing. Praise God that we know our loved ones are with him experiencing the joy we have been promised as disciples of Christ. May Brian rest in peace with our Savior.
To the wonderful Berry family, this was a beautiful memorial service for Brian’s wemoriies and life. Thank you for all you’ve done for each of us there. This is sad and difficult, but we have Brian’s memories and all of you with us still. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all, Randy and Cindy Latimer
Holly, I have such fond memories of you and Brian when you first started dating after meeting through Young Life! You two were so cute, we used to talk about this ‘Brian character’ for hours haha. Together you created an amazing life and I know you will continue to ‘see’ Brian in your three beautiful kids over the years. I will be praying for you all during this transition. God Bless the Berry and Petty families as you mourn an amazing guy. Hugs from Charlotte
