Brian Edward Stroschein

Times-News, The (Twin Falls, ID) - Wednesday, March 5, 2014

BOISE • Brian Edward Stroschein, 53, of Boise, died Thursday, Feb. 27, 2014, at the University of Utah Burn Center in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Brian was educated through high school in Rupert, Idaho. He earned an electrical engineering degree from the University of Idaho, where he met the love of his life, Kathy Fuchs. Brian and Kathy were married on May 28, 1983, at St. Edward's Catholic Church in Twin Falls, Idaho. They made their first home in Colorado Springs, Colo., where Brian started his career with Texas Instruments. Brian and Kathy moved to Boise, Idaho, in 1989 with their two children. Here he pursued becoming an electrician and started his own electrical and communication business. In 2003, Brian joined Hewlett-Packard and made significant contributions to the company as a quality assurance engineer.

Brian loved the outdoors. He was happiest while rifle and bow hunting, hiking, backpacking, camping, rafting, waterskiing, motorcycle riding, cross-country running and biking with his HP friends. Being outdoors is what Brian enjoyed most, and he always wanted to share these times with his family and friends. Brian so loved his children and wanted them to experience all they could in life. This included an array of sports, archery competitions, shooting guns and raising llamas, in addition to all of his other hobbies. He was always there for his family in the form of making everyone laugh, giving advice and lending a hand where needed.

Brian supported his community by being a weekly Eucharistic adoration adorer at Holy Apostles Catholic Church. He was able to share his faith and belief in God in special ways with many co-workers and colleagues. Several people have shared that Brian is the reason they returned to church, became a believer and learned to trust in God and his divine mercy. Brian had the joy of being a grandfather and was affectionately called "Boppa" by his two grandsons. He treasured his time spent playing, holding, teaching and giving them cookies. Brian's energetic spirit, laughter, sense of humor and light-hearted nature will be missed by so many.

Brian is survived by his loving wife, Kathy; daughter, Stephanie (Justin) Leraris, with children Dominic and Keaton; son, Kevin; parents, Paul and Virginia; sisters, Madonna (Jim) Taipale and Lisa (Bill) Dean; brother, Eric (Katie) Stroschein; mother and father-in-law, Richard and Mary Lou Fuchs; and numerous brothers and sisters-in-law, nieces, nephews, cousins and extended family. Brian is preceded in death by his sister, Mary Ann Stroschein; and his grandparents.

The family would like to sincerely thank Dr. Morris and the wonderful medical staff at the University of Utah Burn Center for all their care, love and support.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Brian Stroschein Memorial College Fund, First Tech Federal Credit Union, 11311 W. Chinden Blvd., Boise, ID 83714.
