I was very surprised to see Brian'sname in the "In Memoriam" section of the West Catholic alumni letter. Brian and I ate lunch together every day during our freshman year. I'm happy that I had a chance to catch up with him at our last WC reunion in 2011. He will be missed. My condolences to his wife and family.

I remember Brian as being the best bass guitar player in 1964 and him telling me he could not play when we needed someone to play bass. They were good times and he would always be the guy who would made everyone laugh in the band ( The Violations ). You will be missed by me and the many people that you touched in your life. My prayers go out to your wife Donna.
Brian you will now play forever in the Lords Band.

My sincerest condolences to the Pattersons and family. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I remember Brian as a kind loving person, and listening to his band practice sessions in Lansdowne. They were great memories.
