Brian Allen Willman passed away of natural causes on Tuesday, July 1, 2025, at the age of 62.

Born on New Year's Day in Portland, Oregon on January 1, 1963, Brian was a twin to his sister Brenda and the son of John and Mary Roberta Willman (both deceased). He lived in North Portland for much of his life and is survived by his brother Richard Eugene and sisters Barbara Marie, Linda Carol, and Brenda Ann.

Brian dedicated 38 years to Klinger Masonry in Damascus, Oregon, beginning in 1985 as a Hod Carrier and working his way up to Journeyman Mason. Guided by Charles and Dennis Klinger, he became a teacher, a friend and mentor to many who followed. Known for his strong work ethic and precise craftsmanship, he took pride in his trade up until his retirement in 2023. To the Klinger family, Brian was kin — a brother in spirit and soul.

Outside of work, Brian enjoyed building models and working with remote control cars. He had a fondness for collecting M&M and Coca-Cola memorabilia — hobbies that reflected his quiet personality and appreciation for the little things.

He will be remembered by family, friends, and the many people he worked beside.

A memorial service will be held at a later date. Rest gently, Brian, your hands have earned their stillness. Your spirit, forever part of the foundation.
