Brian Dale Tripp was born on January 29, 1959, in Denver, Colorado, to Donald Leroy and Rema Dell (Crowell) Tripp. He passed away on Saturday, May 30, 2026, at his brother’s home in Amarillo, Texas, at the age of 67.  Brian graduated from Hinton High School in 1977. Following graduation, he remained in Hinton and worked for Dick Ramming. He later worked for Butler & Sons Stock Company, hauling livestock to rodeos throughout the region. Brian subsequently worked for BFI Landfill in Perkins, Oklahoma. Always drawn to the open road, Brian purchased his own semi-truck and moved to Wyoming. After totaling his first truck, he purchased another and continued his career hauling cattle across the country for many years. He enjoyed the independence of trucking and the relationships he built along the way. Brian retired from trucking in 2023 after a long and hardworking career.   Brian accepted Christ as his personal Savior on May 27, 2026, and voiced to family and friends that he was at peace and was ready to go home. Brian was the youngest grandson on the Crowell side of the family and treasured his family connections throughout his life.

He is survived by two brothers, DeWayne Tripp and wife Melia of Hinton, Oklahoma, and Ron Tripp and wife Jerrie of Amarillo, Texas; along with numerous nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Don and Rema Dell Tripp.
