Brian Russell Golliday Sr.

Born on November 10,1970 in Bethesda, Maryland to William and Joan (King) Golliday.

For 38 years, Brian faithfully served as a volunteer firefighter. As a lifetime member of the South Berkeley Volunteer Fire Company, he exemplified courage, selflessness, and dedication. His desire to help others extended far beyond the firehouse, as he was always willing to lend a hand to anyone in need.

Brian found joy in life's simple pleasures. He had a deep appreciation for bluegrass and old country music, loved the excitement of drag racing, and treasured peaceful moments sitting on a balcony overlooking the ocean.

He was known for his huge heart, and fierce devotion to his family. His family was the center of his life, and he took great pride in being a loving husband and father.

in addition to his parents, Brian is survived by his dedicated wife of 10 years, Tracy Golliday, their beloved children: Ashley Hershberger, Brian Golliday Jr. and his fiancée Kimberly Taylor, Timothy Golliday and his fiancée Breahna Rowe, and Marissa Link; three cherished grandchildren: Joel Hershberger, Brysten and Weston Golliday; one sister, Sherri King and her husband Willard.

Brian's legacy of compassion, service, and love will live on in the hearts of his family, friends, fellow firefighters, and all whose lives he touched. He will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
