Brian Humphries

Brian Scott Humphries, 41, of Laurens and husband of Jessica Christine Stanton Humphries, passed away Friday, March 23, 2018.Born in Greenwood, he was a son of Ann Hopkins Lanier and husband Jimmy Lanier of Laurens and the late Robert Lee Humphries. Brian was employed with R.A.I. in Gray Court. Everyone who knew and loved Brian remember him as a big guy with an even bigger personality. He had a big laugh, and when you heard it, you couldn't help but laugh with him. He had a big heart, and he loved to help and encourage people any way he could. When he loved someone, he loved them with everything he had inside of him. The material things he loved most on this earth were his Clemson Tigers, fishing, hunting, and football. The immaterial things he loved most were God, his wife, his family, and his friends. He took immense pride in being a welder, and he was a very talented one at that. Though we mourn the loss of such an amazing person and we will miss him deeply, we can take comfort in knowing that he is safe in the arms of Jesus and he will never know pain or sorrow ever again.
