Obituary
Dr. Brian Christopher Brauer, 46, of Denver, Colorado passed away on September 7th, 2019 in Oahu, Hawaii. He spent his last moments scuba diving in paradise.
Brian was born on September 4th, 1973 in Mexico, Missouri to Jerry and Shirley Brauer. He grew up alongside his one brother, Brent.
He attended school in Mexico, Missouri and graduated from Mexico High School in May of 1992. That September, Brian went on to attend the University of Missouri Kansas City school of Medicine. He graduated with a Doctorate degree, in Medicine, in 1998. After obtaining this degree, Brian moved to Memphis, Tennessee for his residency in General Surgery and then moved to St. Louis, Missouri for his residency in Internal Medicine at Barnes Hospital. He followed this with his fellowship in gastroenterology at Washington University/Barnes Hospital. Brian then moved to Colorado and completed his post fellowship of gastroenterology at the University of Colorado Denver.
In 2007, Brian met Richard and sparks flew. Just a year later, on August 25, 2008, Brian and Richard Simatupang joined together in marriage in Long Beach, California. Together, they have been on many adventures and have traveled to many places throughout the United States. They always end up returning to Hawaii though. Brian was a certified scuba diver and would go diving anytime he was visiting the beautiful state. He was also a big foodie so enjoying fabulous restaurants was always in the plan, especially when he was alongside Richard. His love for food shined through in his cooking, baking, and cocktail creations too. Brian and Richard spent a lot of time in the kitchen cooking, listening to music and creating cherished memories. Brian was eclectic in his taste for music and enjoyed attending concerts. To just name a few, he has seen Andre Bochelli, Billy Joel, Elton John, Lady Gaga, and Celine Dion several times.
Brian was a dedicated Gastroenterologist at the University of Colorado Hospital and an Associate Professor of Medicine at the University of Colorado Denver until his passing.
He is survived by his husband Richard Simatupang, his parents; Jerry and Shirley Brauer, his brother Brent (Carrie) Brauer, his niece Megan Brauer and nephew Matt Brauer and many loving family and friends.
He will forever be remembered as a gentle giant. A man who was kind, intelligent, knew how to be serious when he had to be but, had the greatest sense of humor. We will never forget the times that he busted out the often unexpected sarcasm and jokes. He had an impact on so many individuals and that impact will allow him to live on in our hearts.
