Sonny and Debra,
John and I are so sorry for your loss. You are both in our prayers.

September 1, 2010

I did not know Brian personally, however I felt I had met him after listening to Sonny talk about him earlier this Spring when we all visited Virginia Beach. It was clear through Sonny's words, that Brian was a real individual, a tough independent guy and a man who refused to be compromised by his health challenges. My heart goes to you Sonny and your family. I know you will be missing Brian in your lives.
