Bryan Dale Halverson died on Sunday,
February 23, 2020 at his home in Gold Canyon, AZ. He was
born on August 14, 1960 at Mercy Hospital in Williston, ND
to Richard and Janene (Pfeifer) Halverson.
He was baptized at the Beaver Creek Lutheran Church in Ray,

were his sponsors. Bryan graduated from Special Education
Public High School, Dickinson, ND in 1981. He attended Open
Door Activity Center, Valley City, ND, 1985-2008. He moved
to a group home educational environment and over the years
advanced into living in a four-plex two- bedroom apartment
while attending the center. He was educated and worked at
the center until his retirement in 2008 when he returned to
Williston to live with his parents. They began traveling in
2009 before settling permanently in Arizona in 2012.
Bryan enjoyed music, computers, monster trucks,
