Brian Bob

March 21, 1966 - March 21, 2023

Light and love. If you knew Brian Bob, you were on the receiving end of those forces every time you saw him. And man, it was great. Sometimes you were more in need of one over the other, and without you saying anything, Brian knew exactly what to deliver. It could be a hug that buried you into his chest, an uplifting rush from hearing his bellowing or other times sneaky laugh hit your ear from down the hall, or getting the pursed side lips and "mm" reaction he'd send your way after you said something ridiculous. Right now, as we're all searching for the right words and our feelings are spinning, many have remarked that Brian would know the right words to say to make it better. He'd know the right move to make to steady the space. And he'd have the right sassy remark to bring a smile to our faces. So in his memory, we'll do our best to bring each other the love and light that we all collected from our time with Brian. Having devoted 30 years to Covenant House, his handprints are deeply impressed in the culture of our organization, message of our mission, and in the purpose of all of us he inspirited.

We became friends instantly and have loved each other for 36 years. He encouraged me to date a man named Kenton that we worked with at the Los Altos YMCA, He thought we would be perfect for each other and he was right, We have been married for 33 years. The three of us got to grow up together. I learned so much about compassion, empathy, human connection, social justice, and have been enlightened by him about what it’s like to be a black man in living in America..We shared many joyous occasions that included “LAUGH OUT LOUD” experiences along with disappointments and health scares. He was a constant source of love and support in my life. Brian will forever be in my heart, and my husband and daughter’s heart and we will miss him everyday for the rest of our lives. Rest in LOVE my sweet, sweet Brian
