My heart is heavy this morning after I learned of the passing of a great and dear friend. Dan was one of our first customers and helped get us started. He was there when our father passed away and again when our brother Patrick passed away. I briefly worked with him at Big Dan's BBQ and cannot thank him enough for helping me and my brother Brian get settled back in the area after moving back from Atlanta. He was more than a friend, he truly was a brother to us and I will miss him dearly. Rest easy Dan, you were loved by so many.
Today our hearts are heavy as we mourn the loss of our dear friend, Dan Britt.
For many years, Dan faithfully served right here at Fountain of Life Bible Church, playing guitar in our in-house band. He wasn’t just one of the best guitarists around—he played with heart, with passion, and with a love for the Lord that you could feel in every note.
Dan didn’t just play music… he used it for ministry. Many will remember the times he traveled with Dr. Vic Young into prisons, sharing the gospel through song, bringing hope to places that needed it most. That was Dan—always willing, always faithful, always pointing people to Christ.
And if you knew Dan, you knew Big Dan’s BBQ. Our FLBC Motorcycle Ministry made many rides there, not just for the food (though it truly was the best around), but for the fellowship, the laughter, and the man himself. Dan had a way of making everyone feel like family.
We will miss his laughter.
We will miss his music.
We will miss his friendship.
But we do not grieve without hope.
“Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.” — Psalm 116:15 (ESV)
Today, Dan is in the presence of the One he loved and sang about for so many years.
Please keep his family in your prayers during this time.
Until we meet again, brother… 🎸❤️
