Brian James Wilkerson, age 40, passed away suddenly on March 9, 2023.

Brian was born in Hamilton, OH to James and Kimberly Wilkerson. He served his country as a member of the United States Army Airborne. He enjoyed fishing, kayaking, hunting and camping. Brian’s goofy personality, one-liners, and smile will be missed by many.

“Brian, I wish we would meet “OUSSSHIDE” everyday at work like we use too; But , that will have to wait for now! You were/are an awesome friend. I will and do miss you. SAWWRY, I didn’t get to say bye. I didn’t get to eat those stuffed crickets like I promised because it would not have been the same without you. You never ever failed to make me smile everyday at work and I miss our silly memes, TikTok videos, and silly jokes. Rest in Peace, my friend. Our condolences to your family.”

“Brian was my son in law at one time. He was someone always willing to help whenever he could. I remember specifically one evening he had come by our house and we were having difficulties figuring out how to make these little girl bracelets. My granddaughter, Jennie, I asked Brian if he knew how to do it. Brian just laid down right in the floor and started figuring out how to make these little girl bracelets & he succeeded. It’s not too often that you see grown men do things like that. He had a good heart. Brian was a good dad and tried to be a good example for his only child, Brian James Wilkerson. You will be missed!”


“Brian, my memories of our summers whether it be at Grandmas or camping will always have your smiling face. Your presence always radiated love for your family. I’m so thankful to have grown up with you.”

My thoughts and prayers are with the family during this difficult time.”

“Brian, first off buddy, the moonshine is amazing and I will be toasting you every Sunday til it’s gone. I miss you, your jokes, horrible memes, and mischievous chuckle when you made a really good joke. You made a bad day good and you always knew when I needed a snickers bar. And you always had a lindor chocolate at the ready if Yom or I needed it. It’s so hard to believe that you are gone. But I bet you are having a blast up there. All the good weather, perfect fishing, and cold beers. Maybe they even have Keno. My thoughts and prayers are with your family. I hope you are having fun up there Maybe one day far in the future, I’ll meet you ousshide”

Time dulls the pain but never takes it away. I pray you have the strength to find joy in life again. I pray for your healing, Jim. May God have His Mercy on us all.”
