To the Blanding Family,


My deepest condolences and prayers go out to your family. Your son was my Drill Instructor ( I. Co / 3095). He along his peers (Sr. Drill Instructors) collectively taught me many lessons but the most important was To lead by example. Under their leadership we (India) company would be lead to become awarded the Honor Platoon (Aug/02). Your son was very passionate about being a Marine, he was an exceptional leader.

Not a day goes by that you are not in my heart!

Was thinking of you today. The sweet boy I used to babysit and the amazing man that you became. You will always be remembered.

Miss you Son. You are always in my heart.

Was just told of Brian's passing tonight. I am very sorry for your loss. I knew Brian as being a very amazing man. He was an outstanding marine and someone we could all be proud of! A lot of good memories involving him and although the news of losing him has made me sad the memories will always make me smile!
