Who was Bryan Kroeger?
Bryan was a native to Phillips County and Paoli Colorado. Bryan grew up in a hardscrabble life and knew what it was like to make do with what you had. He had a gift of taking the most unwanted, leftover group of donations, scrap iron, horses, leftovers or most importantly, people, and making something beautiful and worthy out of them.
Bryan knew the value of hard work. But while most folks get caught up in getting the physical work done, Bryan was all about the work of People, People, People. In lieu of needing money or things, mostly people just need a listening ear. Bryan was that person. He would drop everything he was doing and somehow make you feel like you were the most important person in the world.
Bryan’s heart was to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to live in such a way that every soul he connected with would be drawn to Jesus. As with his favorite verse Acts 20:24, Bryan’s aim in life became and was, to complete the task the Lord gave to him, the task of testifying to the good news of God’s grace.
