Most notable was Brian's exceptional career as an aircraft mechanic, a field where he poured thirty years of passion and expertise into his work.

Friends and family would often call on him to repair everything from household items to complex machinery—his touch worked wonders wherever he went. Brian found joy in sharing his talent, and his famous fish fry gatherings became a cherished tradition among loved ones.

While his career was characterized by hard work, it was spending time with his family that truly fulfilled him. He had a special bond with his grandchildren—Fallion, Graysen, and August Hubbard, and Logan Bullington—who brought immense joy into his life. No moment was too small for Brian to treasure, whether it was a simple family dinner or a day spent laughing with his grandchildren. The memories created during these precious times will forever be held close to the hearts of those who knew him.

Brian's educational journey began at Liberal Arts High School in Pensacola, followed by his apprenticeship in aircraft mechanics at Southwest State Technical College. His foundation in learning paved the way for a successful career that not only showcased his technical skills but also his ability to teach and mentor others.

Brian is survived by his loving wife, Beverly Guthrie Hubbard, and his devoted children, Owen and Dee Hubbard, and Kristen and Brian Bullington.
