On December 19th, 2025, Brian Dotson of Bethany, Oklahoma, was tragically involved in a multi-vehicle accident while traveling on I-44. Despite the swift efforts of emergency responders, Brian passed away shortly after arriving at the hospital.
His sudden departure has left a deep void in the lives of his family, friends, and community, who remember him as a man full of love, laughter, and devotion.
Brian was known above all for his unwavering love of family. He cherished every moment spent with his children, who were the center of his world. His dedication to them was evident in the way he supported their dreams, celebrated their accomplishments, and offered guidance through life’s challenges.
His children, in turn, have chosen a Dallas Cowboys urn to honor his memory, a symbol of both his passion for the team and the joy he found in life’s simple pleasures.
A lifelong Dallas Cowboys fan, Brian’s enthusiasm for football was more than just a pastime—it was a reflection of his spirited personality. He enjoyed sharing game days with loved ones, cheering for his team with pride, and finding camaraderie in the community of fans. His devotion to the Cowboys was a defining part of his identity, and his children’s tribute ensures that this passion will forever be remembered.
Beyond his love for sports, Brian will be remembered for his kindness, humor, and loyalty. Friends describe him as someone who could brighten any room with his presence, offering encouragement and laughter even in difficult times. His ability to connect with others and his genuine care for those around him made him a beloved figure in Bethany and beyond. His passing is not only a loss to his family but to all who had the privilege of knowing him.
As his family navigates this heartbreaking time during the holiday season, they face the added burden of unexpected expenses, as Brian did not have life insurance. A fundraiser has been created to help support his children with funeral costs, allowing them to honor his memory with the dignity he deserves. The family is deeply grateful for the outpouring of love, prayers, and support from the community, which has been a source of strength as they mourn the loss of a father, friend, and devoted Cowboys fan whose legacy will live on in the hearts of all who loved him.
