Tami and Sam: words are hard to find to tell you how blessed Carl and I are to have known all three of you guys. We will miss Brian deeply. Carl has said many, many times that he was the best, most helpful, committed, kind, thoughtful and on and on neighbor he ever had. Brian really looked out for Carl and always kept an eye on him and a hand on his back. They helped each other out many times. Tami, you and Sam have always been very thoughtful to me and Carl. please know that both of us are always here for you and also for Sam as. Our kids are also. They think your family is the best. Betty and Lois think you and “the Bear” are special too. Love you guys and remember we are here for you. Carl and Lois.

Brian is my second cousin. He lived in Las Vegas for a short time when him and Robin were young. One time we went to Boulder City and we were all hungry. None of our parents had money so his Mom was feverishly looking through her wallet and found $50! Us kids were screaming with excitement and Brain was running around so happy. When he would come to Vegas for work he would always text me and wanted to meet my Mom and I for dinner. A very very fond memory. He will be missed greatly and I will very much miss seeing him. RIP Brian…….XO

I am Brian's cousin, when I was young we too lived in Minnesota, Brain and I just a few years apart. Our families got together frequently. My family ended up moving to Arizona and the to Nevada, later on Brian's family moved to Las Vegas..Again our families got together, we spent many days in the summer at the lake...Down the road Brian's family went back to Minnesota, that was the last time I saw him..I loved how her cherished my aunt Marie(his granny)The 1 benefit to social media is connecting with family we don't see anymore He will be missed by so many

Being one of my dad's best friends, Brian was like an uncle to me. He was always eager to help however he could, and his enthusiasm for life's adventures, both big and small, was inspiring. He will be deeply missed. My thoughts and prayers are with Tami and Sam, and everyone else who was blessed to know Brian.

Brian was one of the finest colleagues I have ever had the opportunity to work with. His passion, drive, and good nature were evident in every project at work and personal interaction. He never backed down from a challenge and his enthusiasm spread to everyone who had the pleasure to work with him. On a personal level, his ever positive attitude, genuine interest in other people and of course, his entertaining stories will be greatly missed.

NatureWorks lost a great person, coworker and professional last week. I lost a great friend, professional colleague, personal guide and mentor. Although Brian is no longer with us, his presence, smile, sense of humor will remain. I'm sorry for the loss the Glasbrenner's family must endure and I can only offer Tami, Sam and family this poem as a way to help heal your pain during this difficult time. Gone From My Sight (by Henry Van Dyke) I am standing upon the seashore. A ship, at my side, spreads her white sails to the moving breeze and starts for the blue ocean. She is an object of beauty and strength. I stand and watch her until, at length, she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other. Then, someone at my side says, "There, she is gone." Gone where? Gone from my sight. That is all. She is just as large in mast, hull and spar as she was when she left my side. And, she is just as able to bear her load of living freight to her destined port. Her diminished size is in me -- not in her. And, just at the moment when someone says, "There, she is gone," there are other eyes watching her coming, and other voices ready to take up the glad shout, "Here she comes!"

Brian was a friend, colleague and the ultimate team player. The relationship and bond lasted well beyond NatureWorks and no matter the ask, Brian was always available to help out. The ultimate Git'R done guy on every level. And while our inside joke was that everything came back to glue, he really was the glue that kept so many of us connected. He will be missed but never forgotten.

I remember Brian from when he was just a little boy. He was a sweet boy, full of fun. He was maybe only three or four years old when I first met him. My sympathy goes out to his family members. Rest In Peace Brian.

We were so fortunate to meet Brian, Tami and Sam! We first met Brian and Tami when we were moving our sons, Daniel and Sam, into their college dorm room together. Was a great friendship right from the start! We often joked that we think UND matched the parents up as well as Daniel and Sam! Our family was very lucky to be able spend time at Brian and Tami's lake cabin. Also, many great times were spent when Brian and Sam would come out to hunt with us in the fall. So many great memories were made in the short time we were able to get to know Brian. He will be greatly missed! Thoughts and Prayers go out to Tami and Sam during this difficult time.

Brian will be missed! We had a great journey together these 16 years. A brother in arms noting we both would focus on winning the war - not every battle! I close with a quote - “Say not in grief he is no more, but in thankfulness that he was!” See you on the other side.

All of us at Bi-Ax International Inc would like to offer our condolences to Brian's wife and family. Brian was an important person during the development of our Evlon Compostable PLA film. He was always knowledgeable and helpful with any technical inquiries we had, which were many. He was eager to help in any way he could. When he visited he always brought good cheer with him. He was passionate about outdoor activities and we had many discussions with him about the fishing and hunting he enjoyed so much, and of course snowmobiling. it was a pleasure to donate to his snowmobile club in his memory.

As everyone who meets Brian knows he is truly one of a kind and leaves a big hole in our hearts. I’m forever grateful for his warm welcoming into his village and the impact he has had on Asher and my life. Brian never missed an opportunity to impart wisdom, put Asher to work on some project or shake things up with a little humor or prank. As many parents know their children often do not listen to their wisdom and require an other adult to say (often the very same thing) for your child to heed the advice. Asher decided early on that mom and Steve know nothing and if you really want the right answer you must "ask a scientist" and resorted to only believing the answer was correct if he asked Brain first... the scientist. So many more amazing memories continue to flood our hearts and minds but there is one in particular that will always remain close to my heart. On one of the snowmobile trips, I recall Asher and Brian going back and forth- talking smart, while planning tomorrow's ride route when I realized how much he has ignited a new love for this sport and the outdoors in Asher. This passion and mentoring is the biggest gift I will treasure always. Our lives truly are better and blessed since meeting Brian and his enormous heart and contagious spirit. We have so many amazing memories from our snowmobile trips, Asher's boundary water adventures, and everything in between that Brian will forever live on in our hearts and forever be our trail boss. Love you Brian, Tami, Sam, and everyone in their village.

What a pleasure it was to have known Brian. A big laugh, a big heart, a large and warm personality. He did everything with gusto. He was a consummate story teller, such a great guy, and an invaluable part of the team here at NatureWorks. He will be greatly missed I am sure, by most everyone he ever met, no matter what walk of life you had the pleasure of knowing him. He always made me laugh and was grateful for his life, Tami and Sam, as well as the simple pleasures. He did seem to live life to the fullest and I am happy to have had him in my orbit even for a short time. He will be very much missed. My condolences to his family and loved ones. He leaves a big hole. We miss you already, Brian.

Brian. Life celebrated every single day. He recognized and appreciated the quiet moments, the small everyday gestures, and kept those moments front and center. He was a friend who was there at a moment’s notice. He was generous. He was compassionate. Everything he did, he did to the best of his ability. He took no shortcuts. Brian lived every day to its fullest, without regret.

Summarizing the existence of Brian is not an easy thing to do. The positive connection he had with every community he entered states how firm his legacy will hold. I personally never went a single meeting without learning something new. Whether it was a life lesson or skill he was quick to give coaching. He was more than just a friend of my parents, he was MY friend, my mentor, my family.

Not enough can be said about Brian Glasbrenner. Since I was little, I have looked up to Brian. As a God father and mentor, he taught me an abundance of lessons and guided me through many life changes. He always demonstrated and emphasized hard work and deliverance. As a friend, Brian has left me with an unbelievable amount of warm, happy memories that will continue to leave a smile on my face. Whether we were chasing him down the snowmobile trails, watching him fearlessly embrace being “one of the kids” while doing water sports on the lake, or cracking jokes around the dinner table or bonfire - Brian’s love for life was unwavering. And no matter the circumstance, Brian was always there to support you with a sprinkle of wisdom and a kind, strong heart. There is no doubt Brian left this same impact on others who found themselves to be blessed with his company. I could not have asked for a better individual to play such a pivotal role in my life. Brian, I love you so much.

I think of Dylan Thomas when I think of Brian. He did not go gently. He raged(lived) against the dying of the light. His whole life he strived for more. Brian is the best friend I ever had. He selflessly did more for me than I can ever explain. He was always eager to see you and make you feel welcome. He is strong and larger than life. He never did anything halfway. His presence was so complete that his absence leaves a huge hole in my life.

I’m going to miss hanging out in the garage and having a couple beers with you. The neighbor hood won’t be the same without you. You are 1 of the best neighbors I have ever had. I’m so glad we had dinner last Monday, it was a fun time. Then as we left we all agreed to do dinner once a week together. Not knowing that was our last time together, I will always cherish that night and keep looking out for Tami and Sam. And help out any way I can. I’m going to really miss you a lot. There is so much more to say, but I’m a loss for word. Just don’t want to believe you are gone. Until I see you again in the future my friend, good bye my Friend.
