Not sure what to say?

I made friends with Brian while working @ MRA in the late 90s. Brian was very talented and creative in the art field. I grew to respect and enjoy his working friendship. I am shocked by his passing way to soon. Rest in peace my friend.

I just heard of Brian‘s passing..
I am so shocked and sad that this sudden and tragic loss.
I met Brian many years ago , when he and Melanie and I worked together at Saks fifthAvenue think they may have just been dating at the time..
He was just the sweetest, kindest, joyful person , who I I adored, running into here and there around Dearborn , for many many years. That great smile, wonderful personality always fun and loving I know he will be so missed by his sweet family...

I met and worked with Brian at the Beefcarver in high school, hung out frequently and we always had a blast at work and out. I ran into him a few times over the years and he was always fun to be around. I kept up a on him through the years via mutual friends (Mike S. and Pete T). He was the kind of person you don’t forget. I am sorry to have missed the wake.

Brian was a man who loved his daughters, his mother, family and friends. He would talk about them and light up. He was proud of his heritage and what lessons his parents taught him. He had a caring heart with a smile that lit up a room. From high school when we attended Sr Prom together to adults when we would sneak a lunch together I always treasured our connects. It’s hard to believe he was taken but we can count on one thing all those he touched and there are many he will be looking over...

Our sweet Brian, it was just 10 months ago you enter our lives. The first moment we knew you were as much a part of our lives as our own children. Our hearts have a deep hole but we know you will watch over us. We love you and Ms. Cath so much. Until we meet again, Love Stan and Ann McAfee.

May Brian’s love and life and memories of family and friends be of comfort at this sad and difficult time.
As a high school classmate, I remember Brian as kind, genuine, well-liked, and “cooler” than all of us type of guy. It sounds like those things never changed and I am grateful to hear he lived a life full of love and adventure.
May there be less pain in the months ahead for those who loved Brian and will miss him the most.
May we always remember the gift of Brian’s life...

BP...Miss ya already! TB

Miss ya like a brother.

Brian was a good soul. I went to Melvindale schools with him for 6 years. We were in a lot of classes together. He had great zest for life.
One of the most compassionate people I know. He was taken from this earth far too soon, as God had other plans. He made me and everyone around him feel comfortable. No one was a stranger. We had a lot of laughs. I always looked forward to seeing him because I knew I was in for a lot of laughs and a light hearted conversation. Although some...

Brian was such a warm, friendly, and loving person. He made you feel special and important to him. He was the type of person who made you feel like you'd known him forever upon first meeting him. I will miss his beautiful smile and infectious personality. My heart goes out to his family and all who loved him. He will be missed.
