Obituary – Brian James Grabowski, 28

June 4th, 1981 – October 16th, 2009

It is with profound grief and sadness to announce the sudden passing of Brian James Grabowski in a tragic motor vehicle accident near Toad River in Northern B.C. He will be missed by his beloved Shayna and his adoring family – (father) Peter (mother) Susan (Peter MacDonald) and his brothers David and Michael(Ainsley). In England by his “Grand mummy” Laura, Uncle Peter (Myriam) and cousins Margot (Steve), Lara and Vicki. As well as Shayna’s family and numerous friends throughout B.C. Brian was born in Revelstoke, B.C. and had lived in Coquitlam since 1983 – attending Ranch Park Elementary, Dr. Charles Best Junior High, Centennial High School and graduating from UBC with a degree in Civil Engineering. Since 2006 Brian had been living and working in Fort Nelson, and was due to return to Vancouver at the end of October to start a new phase in his life, with Shayna. Everyone who met Brian was touched by his gentleness, his infectious laugh and his goofy sense of humour. Brian lived life the way you are supposed to and will never be forgotten in the hearts of those who knew him and loved him, his energy is eternal. He was loved by all and will truly be missed Service arrangements to be announced at a later date. No flowers or gifts please, in lieu – Brian would appreciate Donations to Canuck House as he was a huge “Canucks” fan, or a donation to your favourite charity.
