Brian Keith Gum, 56, of Arkoma, Oklahoma passed away
Thursday, March 16, 2017, at his home.
Brian was born November 19, 1960, in St. Louis,
Missouri to Gene L. Gum and Patsy Ann (Hale) Gum.

life-long relationships in his field. His latest position was as District Manager for Family

Gum (Luann) of Orlando, Florida and Kevin T. Gum of Stillwater, Oklahoma and

of special friends.
