Brian Belt

Brian Edward Belt, born on July 6, 1974, in Festus, passed away on June 22, 2025. A dedicated family man and a hard-working individual, Brian's life was a testament to his unwavering commitment to his loved ones and his passions.
Brian served in the United States Army from 1992 to 1994, an experience that filled him with pride throughout his life. Following his military service, he found joy in working with his hands, woodworking and through his love of cars, especially Jeeps.

On November 9, 2005, Brian was united in marriage to Hope (Reynolds) Belt. Together, they shared 19 beautiful years filled with love, laughter, and countless memories.
