He was born on June 23, 1968 in Bountiful, Utah to John and Gayle Thatcher. He attended Cyprus High School and Dixie State College. He married Michele Marie on June 6, 2011.
Brian truly loved being around any of his 12 grandchildren. From watching sports to being at family gatherings, you could catch him on any given Sunday watching The Cowboys play. If he wasn’t with family or football he was most likely at a poker table. He looked up to his dad in any way a boy could idolize his dad.
Brian is survived by wife, Michele Marie Thatcher; children, Jerod (Stacey) Gasser, Meghan (Brian) Carter, Jordann (Cade) Rasmussen, Jennifer (Robert) Taylor, Kensie (Wes) Carlson, and Cassidy Thatcher; siblings, Scott (Linda) Thatcher, Wendy (Randy) Butterfield, Sandra Cameron, and Trent (Michelle) Thatcher; 12 grandchildren; and Grandparents, Roy and Ruth Thatcher and Reed and Lucille Randy. He is preceded in death by his Mother, Gayle Thatcher.
