Dear Grace, Brian, Laura, Emily, & Casey, may all of the great memories you have help you through this difficult time. I remember the first time I ever met your dad, Bri. It was at Beecher Road School for a little league baseball practice and given our UTC affiliations, we had an immediate bond. Over the years, I remember seeing him looking on from a distance, and for some reason, I always looked over to where he was standing to see his reaction to what was happening in the game. He loved...

So sorry about Brian. Remembering the years we were neighbors and friends on on Elm St. Our sons playing waffle ball on Brian’s neatly trimmed lawn. He didn’t seem to mind!! My thoughts and prayers are with you.
