Brian R. England's Obituary
With his children and their mother at his side, Brian R. England, age 55, passed away Wednesday, November 24, 2021, in Muskegon after battling Covid. Sharing a birthday with Elvis, he was born on January 8, 1966, in Muskegon to Robert and Beverly (Sterritt) England. Brian made driving a forklift look easy at MHS Conveyor in Norton Shores for the past 5 years. Brian was always up for an adventure, whether it be a road trip to a music festival, or a late-night Steak-N-Shake run with his kids. He loved to spend time with his family first and foremost. During the summer, you could find him at Pere Marquette beach, enjoying the sun and water or walking the pier to watch the sunset. He had a wealth of useless knowledge that came in handy when playing trivia. Every football season he rooted for the Alabama Crimson Tide, but we all know that man bled Maize and Blue. He also enjoyed Red Wings Hockey and playing golf. Pineapple Fanta was his choice of soda, but Coca-Cola was his preferred puzzle. He liked to have his masterpieces framed and hung for all to see. Last, but certainly not least, Brian loved a good sampler platter. He will be missed by his two children, Lacy (Anthony Muston) Olson and Dave (Shelby Bowen) England; four grandchildren, Alexis Olson, Allison Olson, Kellan Olson, and Carson Bowen; the mother of his children, Lori England; his mother, Beverly England; sister, Cheryl Harrington; nephew, Bob Harrington, along with many other family members and countless friends. He was preceded in death by his father, Robert England, and brother, Robert England. A Memorial Gathering will be take place on Saturday December 18, 2021, at The Carriage House Club House, 1930 Carriage Road, Muskegon, MI 49442 from 1 - 4pm.
