Brian F. BARRABEE

So many years pass the memories and images follow Brian and then Loretta through their years as lovers, friends, partners and of course parents. When you have memories Brian still is with those who loved him, captured in a small, forever portion of your mind and heart: this can never be forgotten. That he was so cherished is a gift that like sunrise, sunset, goes on as long as we do.

what is time? what is memory? six years of 12 months, each year passes. Memory is what keeps those we love in front of the eyes of the heart. We cry still because we always will, but we smile and laugh as well. that is why memory has arms that stretch out to hold us closely. Brian will never ever not be a part of our lives, he is now like music we hear if we can catch and hold it. With love to Loretta and the rest of all our family now with so many names. We all remember, how not.

Loretta and family, I was truly shocked to hear of Brian's Brian's passing. He was such a wonderful man and I am honored to have known and worked with him. I know he will be missed by the many. I will keep you and your family in my prayers as you move on through your lives without him.
