To Brian's Family, You don't know me, but I had the honor of knowing your son. He was a dear friend to my daughter Bethany. Brian was always welcome in our home, and he always made us feel welcome whenever we saw him. He had the rare and beautiful gift of making you feel comfortable and like you had known him forever. I feel a loss that words cannot express at his passing. He has a special place in my heart that is just for him. May God comfort you in your sorrow and light the days...

I feel very fortunate to have known Brian and am very grateful for the memories I have with him. I will never forget our golf tournament that we suffered in freezing cold temps and ended up taking home the last place trophy or our all nighter at Wasatch playing gin rummy during the rain that didn't want to quit. (I think the weather followed you, Brian.)
I felt like a little sis and I knew that if I needed anything, I could count on him.
I will miss his early morning...

My Love and my friend. You were my partner who I chose and wanted to share a life with. Sierra loved you with all her heart. You will always be Dad to her. I love and miss you dearly. I am glad for the time I shared with you. I hope you know the 21st would have been 4 years of us. At least you left me in good hands. You gave me a whole family I didn't even know I had. My heart is broken but I also know whatever pain you were in is gone. I hope you are watching me from up there and you better...

So many memories, and not one bad one. Very few impact so many hearts without leaving a few bad memories. But you my friend are one of the few who did just that. You will always be a part of our hearts.

I will miss you more than I know how to describe, but my soul will now have a deeper place where you will rest forever.We lost a true friend and brother, but met so many over the weekend that will continue to enrich our lives.For that to be your parting gift is truly fitting of who and what you were. My deepest condolences go to your sisters and Revabeth and Keith. Melissa nailed it when she said you were a "mama's boy, but not the bad kind". You mom and dad sure did an amazing job with you,...
