I will always cherish the time I worked with and fellowship with this wonderful brother in the Lord. He taught me how to be compassionate to those who needed our services and taught me the technical skills to teach life skills to others. While not often enough, I loved when he would pass me in the hall and say, 'we need to have a Coke break.' It meant we would leave the challenges of work for a few minutes and talk about the goodness of God and life in general. Thank you Bryan for being used of God by investing in my life. I can truly say you earned the reputation to say has Paul did, 'follow me as I follow Christ.' I can only imagine the glory you are enjoying now and look forward to another 'coke' break for all eternity with you.

Dear Thayer Family,
I'm so sorry for your loss. I always enjoyed hearing about Bryan and Marcia's ministry in Bolivia. He was such a sweet and godly man! He will be greatly missed, until we are all together again in heaven.

I remember the time he was in Australia teaching us in Bowral. Many happy memories from choir practice that he always managed to make fun. So sad to hear of his passing, and my condolences to those he left behind.

Marcia,
I just learned of Brian's promotion to glory this evening. There are no words to express our sadness at the loss you must feel and yet Brian no longer suffers and that must be of some relief for you. Knowing that He sees his Savior face to face is a blessing we cannot even comprehend.
I just want you to know on Liz and my behalf that we were so grateful for Brian's concern for our Daniel's care while he was at Progress Industries. Daniel is no longer in a group home but in a Host Home in Urbandale and is doing very well.
Our prayers are with you and your family in these difficult days of temporary separation. But, we know that we will all be reunited one day in Glory to worship our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Always remembered as the teacher who let us be kids in the Music Room at Bowral High School in Australia. He taught us 'Country Roads' and 'Sounds of Silence' for the choir ... the words I still remember so vividly.
Take him home ... down country roads, to the place where he belongs ... beside his beloved family and with God.
hugs

Dear Marcia and kids,
I just want to say what a wonderful husband, father, and friend Bryan was. During times of trial and celebration, especially after my accident, he was such an inspiration to me and always a true friend. He was a Christ-follower that walked the walk and talked the talk, and really helped lead me back to a relationship with our Father. I will selfishly miss him on earth, but hope to one day reunite with him in Heaven. May He comfort you all as you mourn the loss of your husband, your Dad, your Grandpa and our friend Bryan. We loved him so very much and I just wanted you to know that he made a huge impact on my heart and soul. I wish we could travel to Iowa to celebrate his life with you all, but unfortunately I don't have enough leave in my new job to come home. I will be praying for you and thinking of you. Love, Emily and Stella
