“To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”
Brian you lived your life like the poet, Ralph Waldo Emerson. RIP

Dear Struble Family,

I am so sorry for your loss. I have many memories of Brian and the Struble family as a child on Belair Drive. Kickball before the bus, racing bikes around the block, many lunches, coloring easter eggs and building forts in the woods. Things that many kids don't do these days. I will always be appreciative of the warmth shown to me during those times. My heart and prayers go out to all of you especially since I am a Hodgkin's Lymhpoma survivor and very involved with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society as a Board member of our local chapter. I empathize with Brian's struggle.

God Bless all of you.
