Swansboro – Brian John Lister, 39, passed away Monday, October 30, 2023. He was born November 10, 1983 in Point Pleasant, NJ, a son to John and Joanne Bryne Lister.
Brian was a wonderful son, a great brother, a good neighbor, and a loyal friend to many. He had an incredible work ethic and would help anyone who needed assistance. He loved to spend time with his family and friends.
He is survived by the love of his life, his life partner, Emerald May of Swansboro; father and mother, John and Joanne Lister of Emerald Isle; sister, Amy (Josh) Barmer of Raleigh; and brother, Patrick (Jillian) Lister of Emerald Isle; nephew, Wright; and many aunts and uncles, and cousins.
Brian enjoyed spending time outdoors. He enjoyed discovering the beauty of nature while walking in the woods, fishing, kayaking small rivers and streams, camping and canoeing with his friends in the North Carolina mountains, hiking to waterfalls, and walking his three-legged furry friend, Tucker.
Brian especially enjoyed his van camping trip to Iceland this summer with Emerald where they saw many fascinating sights and were awed by the raw beauty of the volcanic landscape.
Brian and Emerald traveled to their ‘Cousins Weekend’ at the Jersey Shore on Labor Day weekend where they had the opportunity to enjoy the company of his cousins in his former hometown.
Brian was a lumber grader for World Timber in Hubert, NC, and importer of exotic wood. Brian traveled many times to Central and South America to inspect wood to import and enjoyed sharing many interesting stories and pictures of his trips. He enjoyed seeing the beauty of wood and the joy that it could bring to others as a result of the skill of his customers.
Please honor Brian’s memory by doing something outdoors — go for a walk, paddle a kayak, pick up litter, rake some leaves or plant a tree, and enjoy the beauty of nature.
A private Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
