Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

I am so sorry for your lost my brother, I can not imagine the pain of losing a child, no matter how old their are. I will be asking God for healing for you and your family.

I am so sorry to hear this. My heart is breaking. I'm so sorry for your family. I just can't comprehend what you are going through. Just know that I love you guys and I will say a few prayers for your family. Love you always!!!

There are no words to console. Bryan truly was a very loving and feeling young man. I am very proud to know Bryan and be a part of his life. To watch him grow from a fun loving playful boy, to a young responsible person and parent. A piece of my heart has left me and is now, with Bryan. ALL MY LOVE TO THE WHOLE OLVERA FAMILY. I can not express how truly saddened I am. I love you Bryan. Don

To Bryan’s loved ones, Words can’t express the hole left behind with his passing. Thank you for creating and sharing with us a man who always showed up when you needed him- with a cold one, a laugh and a helping hand. He is/will be sorely missed. Sending all the warmth and peace during this time and always. Love you, Bryan.

He was a great guy who will be missed.

I will miss you cuz 🥺

I am thinking of everyone. My heart is with you during this very painful time.

Toni, Fred, Brianne, Blake and family, we are so deeply sorry for the loss of your son, brother , and dad. Even though we had moved to NC when Bryan was a little boy, and we didn't get to see him as much as we would have liked to, we know what a great man he had become and just how special he was to all of you. I know he'll be greatly missed. You all will be in our prayers in the days and weeks to come. Love you all. Larry and Ruthann

Heartbreaking! My thoughts & prayers are with you & your family Vic. May all of your memories fill your heart & soul. Share them often. Sending hugs & peace. Gail

There is really no way for me to express my feelings of grief after hearing of Bryan’s passing. Bryan (and the rest of the amazing Olvera family) has been in my life for 33 years… He was always there for me, often times, at the drop of a hat. He always checked up on me and my family to see if we were “happy and healthy.” He was one of the first to wish me a happy birthday every year or remember an important moment. Every football season we were enemies on Saturday and allies on Sunday. He was such a wonderful person, his love was unconditional and his laugh and smile were infectious. To say he will be missed is a huge understatement. I’m so sorry Momma Toni, Fred, Brianne and the rest of the family. My heart is shattered for you all. I will always hold him in my heart, along with 33 years worth of memories. WHO DEY?!

I’m Very sorry to hear about Brian’s passing I always liked talking to him when we crossed paths ! I’m sending prayers for him and the Family 😞

We are so sorry for your loss! Bryan was always able to make people laugh with a quick-witted casual comment. He will be missed. Lifting you all up in our prayers during this horrible time.

So sorry for your lost Vic. You and your family are in my prayers.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
