Bryan John was born on December 14, 1982, in Rochester, MN, to Terry and Marilyn (Schroeder) Stevens. Most of his growing up years were spent in Shieldsville, MN. As a young boy, Bryan took a strong interest in the outdoors, working, playing, and especially hunting ducks and pheasants. Around the age of 6, his father bought Bryan a four-wheeler, which he truly enjoyed and had well into his 30’s. Bryan and his family enjoyed returning home to Lake City, MN, visiting relatives on the weekends. He was a graduate of the Red Birds from Montgomery High School in 2001, where he played basketball.
Bryan met and married Rachel Turek and they were blessed with a daughter, Haley. After several years, they parted ways. Bryan’s life was enriched reconnecting to a high school classmate and family acquaintance, Megan Stier, in May of 2015. He instantly welcomed her son, Brady into his life. Bryan and Megan were eventually blessed with a daughter, Ari. As a family, they enjoyed camping, fishing, going for walks, swimming, and listening to music.
