Brian, you were one of the realest people I know. You did what you wanted, regardless of what other people thought or said, and that was the thing I appreciated most about you buddy. I hope you're playing xbox, reading your comic books, and have an unlimited supply of oakleys at your disposal up there. I am sad that you're gone and you will be missed. You were truly one of a kind.

Brian...I'm at a loss for words right now and cannot believe God called you home so soon. Some Angels are too precious to stay and you certainly did your job here. We have been friends since we were little and a best friend to my cousin Nick. I know this is going to be the hardest for him as well. I seen you in April at the fights and I'm glad we took the pictures we took together that night, and also the ones from the Spfld Mile. I remember the talk that me you and Blake had at Nicks house for fight now and that time has now came. It has been a sad weekend, I think about you every day all day. I love you Brian and I will see you on the other side. Visit me sometimes when I pray to you or just anytime. You are now resting in peace and I know you're happier up there. I will see you tomorrow for the last goodbye.
Love - Bree

You were a good Marine. I will always remember you for your sense of humor and your kind soul. You left us too soon, but experienced more than your fair share while you were here. Semper Fi, Brian. Rest in peace, brother.

brian was a friend of mine ....... all those time when we were on the ship he was always doing something to make everyone smile ...... you'll be missed osmun

I served with Osmun. He was our little brother. It is expected when you willingly and knowingly go into harms way that not all of your friends will come back. To lose him so suddenly after he was home safe was a shock. I hope its a feeling a never get used to. As long as you are in my memory you are never truly gone. I know when I come up in "heaven's scene you will be guarding" it. Until then I hope you find long straight and curvy roads, with no cops, all the animation you can watch, and peace. I will see when its my turn to report in friend, brother, Marine, Semper Fi.

July 6, 2011

Rest in peace Marine. Semper Fi.

I went to boot camp, infantry school and served in the same unit with him in Iraq, Brian was like a little brother to me and my fellow Marines. All of us who served with him have a heavy heart right now; we loved him the way anyone else would love a member of thier family. He's got a new duty station: guarding the streets of heaven, semper fi Marine.
