Born February 6, 1962 as the 4th child of Lyle and Mary Jarvis, Brian lived a full life until his death on July 3, 2023.

The Jarvis family moved to Bend in 1965. They landed next to Juniper Park where their neighbors became lifelong friends (the Moores, Dunlaps, Cartmills and Jantzies to name a few).

In 1980, the family moved to Redmond where Brian graduated from Redmond High School.

While competing as a bull rider for Treasure Valley Community College and on the professional Circuit, he won many buckles and established himself as an esteemed contender with a no quit spirit.

Upon retirement from bull riding he earned his certificates to become a Registered Diagnostic Medical Sonographer and went on to have a notable career doing diagnostic ultrasounds.  Over the next 30+ years, he'd create countless friendships with his coworkers and patients at St. Charles Medical Center and Central Oregon Radiology Associates. As a testament to his impact, Brian has at least one baby named after him. 

His two favorite ultrasounds of his career came in 1997 and 1998, with the birth of his two loving children, Annie and Lyle. 

After retirement in 2021, he moved to Ritter, Oregon to join his father and family on their beloved "Three Mile Ranch". Brian was an irreplaceable father, fisherman, skier, outdoorsman and community member. He will be deeply missed, but will live on in the hearts and memories of all who knew him.

He is survived by his two children, father Lyle Jarvis, brothers Brad, Mark and Kent, sister Laurie and numerous extended family members. Brian was predeceased by his mother, Mary Jarvis.  

Brian often expressed his desire to donate his brain to the research of Traumatic Brain Injuries, specifically CTE. On July 7, 2023 Brian's brain was received into the Boston University UNITE Brain Bank.

The family kindly requests you please share memories and photos under the 'Memories' tab on this site.
