Not sure what to say?

Brian was one special friend who I will forever be grateful for being in my life. A dog whisperer and a people person. Can´t get much better than that. I will miss you , my friend.

We'll always remember Brian for the goodness,tenderness, and love that he put into everything, especially the very special JayHawk Labs and we were honored to have. They were Brian (and Elly's) pride and joy that gave us endless happiness. Brain's humble nature radiated a kindness to all that he encountered. And will be missed. Rest in heavenly peace our friend. You have reached the finish line beautifully. With deepest condolences to Elly & family. -Stella, Jay and Winston Akscin

Sorry for your loss.

Brian was a super nice guy with a great sense of humor. We had met him and Elly 18 years ago, having gotten our last two wonderful labs from JayHawk Labradors. We regarded him and Elly as dear and supportive friends and we will greatly miss his presence in our lives. Rest In Peace, Brian

I will forever be grateful to Brian for giving us the best and well trained quirky dog. Brian was a kind man moth a big heart. Our deepest condolences to Elly and their family.

I will cherish my wonderful friendship with Brian you are truly a great individual. I will miss you deeply my friend. I love you very much, Eric.

Dear Brian was instrumental in getting me to quit my 42-year smoking habit. He told me of a program called "Learn to Be Tobacco Free",and I will always be grateful for that. He was a beautiful person, always cheerful and positive. He and Elly were perfect together and good friends to many. May he rest in peace.

A great person

A good man.
