September 3, 1999 — July 15, 2023
Mason
O’Rourke, Brian Thomas was born in Frankfurt, Germany on Sept. 3, 1999, and passed away Saturday, July 15, 2023 at age 23.
He was a fierce competitor in playing cards or board games. For him it was first place or nothing. He was blessed with a keen mind, intelligence and a sensitive heart. He favored the humor found in Mel Brooks and Monty Python movies. His real passion was understanding technology and how it all worked. Despite his challenges with Autism, he earned his CDL and was an over-the-road truck driver for PAM Transport.
Brian is survived by his parents, Tom and Colleen (Edwards) of Mason; his two brothers, Michael and Patrick, and his favorite sister, Caeli. He also leaves his maternal grandparents, Herb and Maureen Edwards, of Dayton; and many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
He is preceded in death by paternal grandparents, Tom and Regina O'Rourke; his uncle, Jeff Edwards and his cousin, Jesse McGuffin.
The family thanks you for all the prayers and support and asks you to celebrate your life as Brian would have wanted, within the confines of the law.
