Brian dedicated his life to Jehovah God and symbolized it by water baptism on Sept. 23, 1989 in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. Brian married the love of his life, Denise, on May 20, 2006 in Spokane Valley, Wash. Brian has spent the last five years driving a truck for Lakeside Disposal of Moses Lake and that is where Brian and Denise have made their home.

He is survived by his beloved wife Danielle “Denise” McLean; his mother Shirley McLean of Spokane Valley Wash.; his brothers Robert F. McLean Jr. and wife Linda of Spokane Valley Wash., Timothy McLean and wife Corrine of Everett, Wash., Bruce McLean of Spokane Valley, Wash. and Todd McLean and wife Tammy of Riverview Fla.; his children Seth Hager, Noah Hager, Savannah Hager, Quinn McLean, Abigail McLean, Brianna McLean and Jordan McLean; his nephew Dason McLean, who was practically another son and various other nieces and nephews.

Brian was a passionate sports fan. He loved the Seattle Seahawks, the Washington State Cougars, and the Gonzaga Bulldogs. He enjoyed camping, playing sports and spending time with his friends. But his two biggest passions were his wife and kids, and the service of his creator Jehovah God. He loved to preach and teach his hope to everyone. Psalm 37:9-11, 29 and Rev. 21:3, 4.

The last several days of his life he took his family to visit his favorite place on earth, the World Headquarters of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Warwick, N.Y. and its support locations the Patterson Educational Center in Patterson, N.Y. and the Wallkill Printery in Wallkill, N.Y.

His family and friends can’t wait until his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ calls. Brian will answer! John 5:28, 29.
