Brian Dale Jameson was born in Dublin, Ireland, as Albert Brian Davis, to Priscilla Davis and Har Moynan on October 10, 1947. He was adopted from the orphanage in his third year by Dorothy and Roy Jameson who flew over from an USAF Base in London. He had never heard English, traveled in a car or seen a flush toilet. Adored by his new parents, he began his traveling life which was anchored in Seeley Lake, Montana, but saw him visiting over 30 countries. He graduated with the first graduating class from Seeley Lake High School as Salutatorian. He joined the Navy and spent six years sailing the Atlantic Ocean on the USS Tatnall, working electronics and deepening his love for the sea and our planet. He attended University of Montana to study Spanish, mathematics and music. He practiced tai chi most of his life.
Brian thrived making music and being in the wilderness. He hiked, back packed, camped and fished in rain, snow or shine. He and his best friend, John Devins, hitchhiked across the country juggling, clowning and making people smile. He excelled in sports including skiing, canoeing, basketball and golf. He played guitar and piano. He developed his handyman business called The Home Ranger and worked throughout the Seeley Lake and Missoula area. Later, moving to Hamilton, he worked for Ravalli County as Maintenance and Custodial Supervisor for seventeen years.
Brian was a Leader and Dance Mentor in the Dances of Universal Peace. He and Star travelled in the U.S., Canada and Mexico sharing the joy of singing and dancing to sacred phrases and spreading the awareness of love, harmony and beauty. He is remembered for his humor, gentle leadership, patience, unfailing kindness and the many Dances he wrote which live on in that community.
Brian passed away peacefully on August 14, 2025 from Alzheimer’s Disease in a Veterans’ facility in Butte, MT. Star and Autumn were with him. He is survived by his wife Star, sister Terri Alphin, daughter Summer Porch, grandchildren Aiden and Caitlyn Porch; stepdaughter Autumn (LaDuke) Himmelman, grandchildren Cameron (Doran) Dexter, Sarah Doran; stepson Geoffrey Klare, and grandchildren Kyle Carlee and Lake Klare.
