My condolences to his family and Friends. Brian welcomed me about 25 years ago in his home for 6 months and was a nice and generous man. I was pleased to FaceTime him a few months ago!
He will be remembered for ever!

Thinking of you Phim and all the family at this time. He wasn't just a large man, but he was large in the lives of many. He was a buddy of my Dad's, Sefton Gray, and I've memories of watching Brian offshore setting off past date flares, plus the sacks of oysters we enjoyed!! With sympathy, love and care, Carol
