Brian Thomas Mason, 50, of Williamsburg, Virginia, passed away on August 8, 2026. Born on November 22, 1975, in Virginia, Brian was the son of Thomas Mason and Patricia Hogge.

Brian spent his working years as a machinist in the woodworking industry, a profession that reflected skill, patience, and a dedication to working with his hands. His life was one shaped not simply by the work he did, but by the people who knew him and the memories they shared with him along the way.

At just 50 years old, Brian’s passing came far too soon. Those who knew and cared for him are left to carry forward the moments, stories, and memories that made Brian uniquely himself. While words can never fully capture a person’s life or the place they held in the lives of others, those memories remain a lasting part of his legacy.

Brian is survived by his parents and his cousin, Donald Johnson. Brian will be remembered by his family and those whose lives crossed paths with his, and his memory will live on in the hearts of those who loved him.

Simply Cremation is handling the arrangements.
