His obituary, published on Legacy.com, celebrated his life, his dedication to law enforcement, and his love for his family.

In keeping with his wishes, donations in his memory were encouraged to be made to the New Hampshire Law Enforcement Cancer and Charitable Foundation, rather than sending flowers, reflecting his lifelong dedication to helping others.
Brian Landry is remembered not only for his service and bravery but also for his compassion, kindness, and the positive impact he had on everyone he met. His legacy will continue through the lives he touched, the students he guided, and the community he served so faithfully.
