Brian Robert Tillesen's Obituary
On Tuesday, July 24, 2018, Brian Robert Tillesen age 35, passed away peacefully in his home from medical complications stemming from a knee surgery three weeks prior.
Though it was tragically cut short, Brian had a life full of accomplishments. He was an Army officer with combat experience. He held a master's degree in anthropology from the University of Central Florida. He earned the rank of Eagle Scout from the Boy Scouts of America.
His biggest accomplishment was his family: his wife Alexa, and 8-month old son, Nicholas. While the pain of Brian's absence will always be felt, Brian’s kind and gentle spirit will long be remembered.
The family is asking that in lieu of flowers, contributions be made to a Go Fund Me page that has been established to soley benefit baby Nicholas and Brian’s wife Alexa. That page can be found at: https://www.gofundme.com/in-memory-of-brian-tillesen
A visitation will be held on Thursday, August 2nd from 5 to 7 pm with funeral services beginning at 7 pm at Moss Feaster Funeral Home in Clearwater.
Brian will be interred at Bay Pines National Cemetery.
