Brian Eric Wells

1985 - 2012

— It can never be said that he did not live life to the fullest. Brian Eric Wells, referred to by close family as “Bubba”, made his way into this world on September 25, 1985, in Muskogee, Oklahoma. He was the third child and only son for Jim and Brenda Wells. He began as a beautiful baby that grew into a handsome young man who always did the opposite he was told. His familiar smile could light the world and was often seen when his nieces and nephew were around. His many past times include flying radio controlled airplanes, skateboarding, bull riding, skydiving, cliff jumping, fishing, hunting, horseback riding, motorcycling and enjoying a drink with good friends. He joined the Army  as a Cavalry Scout where he served in Afghanistan. Upon his return, he began searching for the things that defined him which included his devotion to the Lord. It was during this time that he met the love of his life, Cassie and her daughter, Nathalya. Through their love and commitment to each other, they recently learned that they would be expecting a new joy in their life to be due in August.

The Lord called Brian home on Wednesday, April 25, 2012, to be the guardian angel over his loved ones.

He is preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Leo and Ruth Keeler,  paternal grandmother, Myrtle Wells, and his Uncle Rickey Wells. He is survived by his wife, of the home, Cassie Nail-Wells, her daughter, Nathalya Smith and their unborn baby girl, Sahara Destiny of Muskogee, OK, parents, Jim and Brenda Wells of Muskogee, OK, paternal grandfather, Lee Wells of Muskogee, OK, two sisters, Stefani Bourassa and her fiancé Eric Salmon of Ft. Gibson, OK, Tifani Hardaway and her husband Ryan of Muskogee, OK, two nieces, Skyler Breanna Bourassa and Lexi Ann Bourassa, one nephew, Hunter James Rouse and a host of cousins, aunts, uncles and treasured friends.

Final arrangements for Brian are being coordinated by Lescher-Millsap Funeral Home in Muskogee, OK. Funeral services will be held at 10:00 a.m. Wednesday May 2nd at the First Baptist Church, being followed by the burial service at 1:00 p.m.. at Fort Gibson National Cemetery.
