Thinking of Brian today. Not sure why.
Bishop Dwenger '95

I went to Dwenger With Brian and was on the wrestling team with him our freshmen year. I am stationed at Fort Stewart Ga and Was out of no where thinking about him today! God Bless you Brian and your family! Strength and Honor!

Just thinking of Brian as Memorial Day approaches. We keep his memory alive here at Bishop Dwenger High School. Having been a friend of Brian's in high school, I have the opportunity to keep his picture visible and tell my students about him. This Memorial Day we will again be cleaning the area around the tree here at Dwenger that was planted in his honor. As in year's past, we will again replace the flag there to help all remember Brian's life and sacrifice. God bless.
