Not sure what to say?

I worked with Bryan during my energy conservation days decades ago and had a good conversation with him a year ago when I ran for the GVEA Board of Directors. I always came away enlightened with his enthusiasm.

My dear, dear Betty, I am so sorry for your loss. I know Bryan's spirit will remain with you to give you courage and support until you meet again. You must treasure the memories of the time you had together here. John will enjoy him until it is time for all of you to be reunited.
Love,
Renée

I was lucky enough to care for Bryan in his final weeks. My thoughts are with his lovely wife Betty, his caring son Thor, and the rest of his family I did not have a chance to meet. Bryan's stubbornness drove me crazy the first day I met him. But by day two, he completely won me over. Throughout the next few weeks I got to know Bryan and I truly admired that same stubbornness and his strength all the way until his flight home. He's someone you can't forget. His laugh and his final words to me...

Condolences to the family.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Bryan's family. I worked for Bryan in the early 80's at King Steel, Inc., Air Design & Analysis, and Bryan Borjesson Consulting.

Bryan was a wonderful boss and friend. He was our photographer at my wedding and reception.

He had the guys in the shop at King Steel fabricate a great meat cutting table for us to process game meat. I'll never forget him saying to Make it solid, it needs to hold up to Sonny throwing a moose quarter onto the...

Bryan was an original. He always had a smile and words of wisdom if you were down. I could always count on him. He was more than a business associate, he was a friend.

Bryan will be missed. He had a great sense of humor. He had great passion about his work and the direction of our community and state.

Very sad to hear this news.
