It is with deep sadness that we share the news of the unexpected passing of Brian Arias. Brian was courageous and kind-hearted man, a father, a US Army veteran. He most recently worked on Task Order 4, supporting our Diplomatic Security Service at the US Embassy in Baghdad Iraq.

Brian was loved by many, and his absence is a profound loss for all those who knew him.

Sadly, Brian has left behind his two beautiful children, Irelynn and Evelynn, who meant everything to him. As the family mourns his loss, we want to ensure that they are supported in their time of grief. We are reaching out to you for your help in providing financial assistance for the immediate needs of Brian’s children, Irelynn and Evelynn and their mother, Melissa. Most importantly, this includes travel expenses to attend Brian’s memorial so they can say their final goodbyes.

Any additional donations received will be used to provide ongoing support for Irelynn and Evelynn as they learn to navigate life without their father. We appreciate any contribution you can make, big or small, and your generosity will make a significant difference in the lives of Brian's children during this challenging time.

Brian’s Service will be held on Saturday, May 20th, 2023 from 11:00am to 1:00pm at Lewis North Chapel Building 11621.
