Brian's obituary

We commemorate the life of Mr. Brian Gerald Kriz, lovingly known by many as Razz.  Born on February 28, 1976, Brian lived a life bursting with humor, intensity, and an uncanny knack for practical jokes. He was taken from us all too soon on June 2, 2024, leaving behind him a legacy filled with remarkable experiences and heartfelt memories.

His presence was dynamic, always brimming over with life. Whether joking around or being sarcastic,... Brian left quite an  impression on everyone he met. His philosophy of life was somewhat unconventional, often telling others, "Don't yell at me,... I have asthma" Brian embodied a spontaneous spirit, his audacious approach to life influencing those around him.

His greatest achievements were not in the form of trophies or accolades, but in the form of the remarkable children he shared with his late, 1st wife Karie. Struggling to find balance in his life with the role of father to Brian Jr. and Kayla, he took immense pride in their accomplishments and often referred to them as his best achievements. Brian's legacy is mirrored in their good looks and witty personalities, as he always predicted it would be.

Brian is survived by his loving wife, Gina Kriz, who shared with him the joys and challenges of life.  Along with his kids, Gina, too, cherishes the vibrant memories of a man with a generous spirit and a big heart.

As we say our final goodbyes, we remember Brian not just for his humor and high spirits, but for his undying love for his family, profoundly proud of his children, and his ability to bring laughter and joy into every room he entered. His vitality and his vivacious personality will continue to live on in the hearts of those who loved him.
