Brian Lee Marx was born January 17, 1969 to Fred and Martha Marx. He loved kids and animals and you could always find him outdoors. When he was young he would be playing and riding his motorcycle out on the farm in Rickreall where he grew up. As he got older you could always find him working jobs that were outdoors. Brian fought a courageous battle with oral cancer for 3 1/2 years and a stroke 3 years ago. His strength and optimism was admired throughout his illness and he never gave up. Brian is survived by his parents Martha Marx of Rickreall, Fred Marx of Redmond, daughter Molli Schnieder, son Richard (Ricky) Marx, granddaughter Chloe Marx, brother Daryl Marx, sisters Cyndi Michael and Kelly Marx, niece Tevy Michael, nephews TJ Michael, Alex Michael and Jaden Hubbard, and dearest friend and partner, Kathy Garrison.
