The Life of Brie:

Bryan Karee Miner, affectionately known as "Brie" or to his preference, "Bryonce," graced this world with his presence on October 16, 1988. Bryan was the second and youngest son born to Bryan David Miner and Vellita Nannette Fulmore. Bryan along with his older brother Karee spent their childhood in the southern New Jersey neighborhood of Lawnside where Bryan was educated by the New Jersey education system, ultimately graduating from Haddon Heights High School in June 2008.



In his twenty's, Bryan relocated for a brief time to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where he gained employment as a bartender and server at an upscale fine dining establishment named "The Lobster Bar Sea Grille." It was during his time in Florida that he gained a passion for the hospitality industry and decided upon moving to the Philadelphia area to continue working in the restaurant business. 

Bryan became employed with a local business man assisting with several events throughout the city where he was admired for his dedication and hard work. He gained the admiration of his employer who noticed his leadership abilities and asked Bryan to help run his establishment at Tavern 222 on South street in Philadelphia where he remained. 

Tavern 222 allowed Bryan the opportunity to do what he loved best, serve others while showing great hospitality with his sense of humor and warm smile. Bryan was the bartender you wanted to know. He made every individual 
feel like a celebrity gaining popularity among his coworkers and guests. 

No matter the location, Bryan had the ability to instantly connect with others. Children adored him, women admired his confidence and courage and men recognized his strength and dignity. Many people depended on Bryan as their confidant because he was easy to approach, trustworthy and gave great encouragement. He helped create beautiful memories for others that will live on in their hearts forever. 

Bryan had the ability to overcome many obstacles in life. His strength to endure served as an example for his entire family to follow. One area Bryan was able to master was being true to who he was without being too consumed with the opinions or acceptance of others.

Bryan found freedom being "Brie" also known as "Bryonce Carter" who was a true diva and as fly as he wanted to be from clothes to hair, makeup, nails and shoes. Brie could out do us all in the area of fashion on any given day. 

Brie was happy and lived life to the absolute fullest. One of his most memorable occasions was the recent celebration of his 30th birthday party in October in which several family members came out to party with him. Brie expressed to his brother Karee the excitement felt due to  his relatives  coming to celebrate this memorable day.  Brie loved his family more than anything especially his older brother Karee, who he often expressed to other relatives how much he loved and admired.

In addition to working in the hospitality industry,  Brie was a fabulous hair stylist and makeup artist specializing in custom made wigs that varied in length, color and style. His online and social media outlets allowed him to advertise and sell his products to a large following of customers.  Brie's goal was to make everything and everyone in his life feel beautiful. 

Brie often modeled his wigs while singing, dancing and recording videos in slow motion which gave him the ability to show the beautiful flow of his hair styles. He took very nice pictures being naturally photogenic in front of the camera. 

Some strong attributes of Brie is he was sweet like candy and loyal like a soldier. When asked by his family to describe him, the words that consistently came up included loyal, free, faithful, courageous, fun and full of life while being very entertaining. Brie was the life of the party and according to his mother, the party did not begin until he arrived.

Brie had a special relationship with all of his family who loved him dearly and he will be truly missed. Words cannot explain the void that will be felt by all without his presence. 

Brie leaves to celebrate his life and remember his beautiful spirit his mother Vellita Fulmore; father Bryan Miner; brother Karee Miner; grandmother Verona Miner; partner Shawn Carter; eleven aunts; six uncles; and a host of cousins and close friends. 

Lovingly submitted,
THE FAMILY
