(Joel) Brian Sparks

March 30 1963 to June 24, 2022

Brian Sparks passed away in his home in Elsmere, Delaware. Brian was born in Denver Colorado and attended high school at Roaring Fork High School in Carbondale, CO. Brian then completed studies at Colorado Mountain College in Glenwood Springs, CO and then the University of Nebraska, at Lincoln Nebraska. After a few positions in information technology, Brian moved to Elsmere as a US Airways flight attendant based at Philadelphia International Airport. This career choice allowed Brain to purse his passion of traveling throughout his over 25 years of flight service. Besides air travel, Brian also enjoyed traveling around the country by Amtrak train and most recently travel by cruise.

In addition to the American Airlines family, Brian was highly involved with the Nebraska Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA). Through the years Brian was able to stay connected with many of the friends he had made at school, work, and through his travels. His energy, enthusiasm, and quick wit will be missed by many.

Services will be held at Krienen-Griffith Funeral Home 1400 Kirkwood Highway, Wilmington, Delaware on Friday August 12th at 1:30 pm. Instead of flowers, Brian would appreciate donations to be made to your favorite organization.

Brian is survived by his sister Cheryl and Brother-in-Law Brian Hiebert, brother Kevin and Sister-in-Law Merideth Sparks, Uncle Robert and Aunt Dorothy Sparks, cousins, and members of his Arizona family.
