John, Nancy, and family...We were so very sad to hear of Brian's passing. He was such a "big man" who couldn't wait until he grew up and married LeAnn Rimes! I hope he's now found his ideal girl in heaven. Brian brought so much happiness into everyone's life and we were so very glad to get to know him. Know that you are all in our hearts and prayers at this very sad time.

Dear Aunt Nancy and Uncle John,
I was very sorry to hear of my cousin Brian's death but heard it was peaceful and at home. He really did inspire many people around him and I am glad he was able to be at home with his family at the end of his life here on earth.

John and Nancy and family; Ethel Buffington called and left us know of Brian's passing. I always enjoyed visiting and providing him with communion. He was indeed special and his country western girlfriends were special to him. His sisters were pretty special to him as well. May God bless you and comfort you in this time of sorrow. Rev.
