Juan was a hardworking man who took great pride in providing for his family and helping others. For 45 years, he worked in agriculture, a life he truly enjoyed. He loved being out at the ranches and staying busy. Work was an important part of who Juan
was, and he found purpose in doing a job well and knowing that his efforts mattered.
Juan loved tinkering with mechanics and figuring out how things worked. He also loved music, especially playing the piano, which brought him a great deal of happiness.
Those who knew Juan will remember him most for his kindness and generosity. He was always willing to lend a hand and rarely hesitated when someone needed help. If he could do something to make life a little easier for someone else, he would. He gave his
time, his knowledge, and his help freely, often without expecting anything in return.
Juan is survived by his wife, Gloria Briano, and his children: Elizabeth Briano-Macias, Samuel Briano, Lorena Briano-Burrola, Jeannette Briano, and Juan Briano. He is also survived by his 18 grandchildren, and 8 great grandchildren whom he loved dearly.
He is preceded in death by his parents, Maria del Refugio Rangel-Briano, Juan Briano; his sister, Francisca Briano; his brothers, Bernardino Briano, Abel Briano; his son, Juan Briano.
He will be loved, remembered, and missed always
