Brian Dowling Obituary

The passing of Brian Dowling (Ellicott City, Maryland) leaves a void in the hearts of many, as we bid farewell to a loving soul who departed on August 17, 2025 at the age of 28. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Brian Dowling to show support.

As Brian departs from this earthly realm, his essence lingers — a whisper on the wind, a ripple on the water — a testament to the enduring power of love to transcend the boundaries of life and death. Though Brian may no longer walk beside us, his spirit lives on in the memories and the legacy Brian leaves behind.

He is survived by: his parents, Mary Meisinger Dowling and Robert H. Dowling; his sister Caitlan Ryan Dowling; his uncles, Mark C. Meisinger and Dr. David Schafer; and his aunt Michelle Dowling Schafer.

Visitation will be held on Monday, August 25th 2025 from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM at the Harry H. Witzke's Family Funeral Home (4112 Old Columbia Pike, Ellicott City, MD 21043). A celebration of life will be held on Monday, August 25th 2025 at 2:00 PM at the same location.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations to the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation, a charity of your choice or a gift or act of kindness to a loved one or stranger.
