Brian was the cherished son of Raymond and Kathy Cross (née Meppiel), devoted brother of Scott (Ashley) Cross, and beloved twin brother of Ryan (Mandy) Cross and the two of them shared the unique and unbreakable bond of twin brothers, Brian and Ryan had a connection that was special in its own way and would last a lifetime.
He was also the adored uncle of Charlie Marie Salazar, Taylor Cross, Sophia Cross, and Allie Cross. Brian was also an adored nephew, cousin, and friend to many, leaving a lasting impression on all who knew and loved him.
Brian worked at Hardee’s in Fenton for over 20 years and was a proud graduate of Fox High School, Class of 1995. He had a love for movies, especially The Three Stooges, and enjoyed wrestling. He also treasured his unique collection of rings of all kinds and had a passion for collecting hats, from ball caps to cowboy hats.
Brian was a devoted fan of his local sports teams, including Mizzou Football, the St. Louis Cardinals, and the St. Louis City SC. He never met a stranger, and his warm spirit and the joy he brought to others will be deeply missed.
Our hearts are broken by Brian’s sudden passing, but we find comfort in the hope of Christ’s Resurrection and the promise of eternal life.
