Not sure what to say?

Brian was a great team mate, competitor and gentleman.

My deepest sympathy goes out to Brian's family and friends. He was an All-American, a Harvard graduate and a New England Patriot draft pick but most impressive of all, Caregiver to his Parents. He was an extraordinary person who will be deeply missed.

BUUUUUUUUCK.

SO SORRY TO HEAR THIS TERRIBLE NEWS.
Some years before the big move to the big White House on the hill we were neighbors in Clifton with his growing family on Shetland and me and Jimmy on Pickwick. My fondest memories are of his permanent smile/smerk for sooo many years. RIP

I played football with Brian during his years at Harvard. He was an outstanding athlete and competitor. My condolences go out to his family at his loss.

Great rival, great teammate and great friend. Never forget. RIP.

May your memories of the wonderful times you shared with your loved one comfort you and your family, today and always.

To the Buckley Family, my heartfelt sympathy goes out to you. Brian was a star on the field, and an even bigger one off the field. His devotion to his parents, his kindness, and that big smile will always be remembered and cherished.
G-d Bless.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Brian's family and many friends.
