Help Brian Robert's Family Through Tragedy

Last Thursday Brian unfortunately lost his life in an Avalanche on Mt. Bailey. He was surrounded by friends that loved him dearly and did everything they could to bring him home to his girls. They were unable to make that happen.

Brian’s family has suffered an unimaginable loss. Brian was an expert skier of 40+ years, a beloved MBSEF instructor, a champion ski racer and world cup contender. His love for the Central Oregon Cascades was unmatched, and he had unwavering passion for teaching young kids the love of the mountains and outdoors. But his most special child was his own - Brian leaves behind his treasured 11-year old daughter and his beautiful wife of 13 years. His role as “dad” was his greatest calling. As you release his name to the world tonight, you need to know he was so much more than a name, He was the kindest soul - adventurous, loving and bigger than life. He was an amazing father and husband, a steward of the mountains and the most loyal of friends. He will be deeply and painfully missed. We ask that you keep his wife Heather in your loving thoughts tonight as she was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and now has to fight that journey on her own. We are overcome with grief in the unfairness of it all and hope Brian’s memory is held tightly in the hearts of those who loved and adored him.
