My heart goes out to the Fani family!!! My son Andrew was a friend of Brian's from school and also a neighborhood friend to him. I know this loss is so painful. Brian was a bright young man in the peak of his life who brought much love into this world.
Treasure the years God gave you and in time your memories will bring joy into your heart. You are both wonderful parents , neighbors and fellow St. Gabriel 's church members.
I will pray for your strength that God can help you through this very difficult time.

I was lucky to be able to consider Brian a friend during High School. I'll never forget sitting at lunch at Marlboro High School while he criticized what I brought in each day. We also sat next to each other at the First Aid squad while we took the EMT course studying together often. We passed notes to each other to pass the time. I definitely credit Brian with helping me pass the course as he was a great study partner. He had a kind heart and was always fun to be with. Brian, you will be greatly missed but never forgotten.

Brian my heart has been taken from me you were the best son a mothers could have ever asked for. God blessed me with you for 25 1/2 years. I will cherish every second I had with you & I know I will hold you in my arms again some day in God's kingdom, but I don't know how I will go on in this life without you.

Love you with all my heart Mom

In recent years, I had lost contact with Brian. However, I will never forget hanging out with him after school in 8th grade shortly after he got his guitar. It was a Dean Evo with a 'flame' paint job. We just thought it was the coolest thing in the world. In fact, It was so cool that it made me want a guitar of my own. I got one later that year (not nearly as cool looking as Brian's, of course) and Brian, accompanied by our friend Jeremy, came over to my house and showed me how to play my first power chord. I never stopped playing after that.My deepest condolences go out to Brian's mother and father, Denise and Bruce, as well as the rest of his loved ones and family. - Andrew Ciraulo
