I knew Brian at McGill where we became good friends in a very short time. He was a good example to all of us then. Always fun-loving, but always in control. He was gentle, intelligent (in several ways) and generous. His winning personality won him a number of friends of which I am proud to say I was one.

I am so sorry for your loss, Mary and Kelsey.
I just learned today of Brian’s passing.
We had fun times at Huggins! Brian was a joy and a kind man. Brian had a true twinkle in his eyes and a wonderful smile.

My Dearest Brian, my husband. You were the smartest ,most talented, most hard working, and kind, generous, compassionate person I have ever known. I miss you everyday and I feel your presence still. I love you forever. Mary

I met Brian and Mary in 1979. I was a wide-eyed surgery intern and Brian was my funny,smart, compassionate but realistic senior resident. What a great teacher he was to me! Both Brian and Mary were gracious social hosts and made those resident years such fun. It’s hard to believe the world is without that fabulous smile. Thank you Brian for being such a stellar mentor and friend. Love and hugs to Mary, Kelsey and all of Brian’s family and friends
