I know Brian's struggles are over and he is at peace. I believe he has all the answers to all the questions today, he will be missed and remembered fondly by all of us who were lucky enough to know him.

Brian was an extremely intelligent guy that I enjoyed talking with. He spoke passionately about his daughter and attending school. He had a warm smile that lit up his face when he smiled. In fond rememberance, my condolences go out to his family.
