Homer BRICKEY Jr.

My thoughts and prayers are with Mr. Brickey's sons, whom I went to Rogers with, and his wife and family.

He was an amazing grandfather to have. I was only able to visit him during the summer between school semesters but every time was a pleasant experience. He once drove out to colorado to visit and give his Jeep to my brother. I believe he wrote about the experience of driving it across the country. His down to earth personality was always refreshing. I was sad to see him go but I am happy to have seen him one last time.

I met Homer at arines was an able 2go 2the showing i would like 2no where he is buried he was a great reporter and a good person 2have a converstion

I never met Homer but we exchanged emails on genealogy....we are third cousins-once removed on the Brickey side. He made me feel as tho' we knew each other. I am sorry to read of his passing.

Sue -- I was very sorry to learn of Homer's death. I know you had just retired and were looking forward to more leisure time together. I feel badly that because I am at my new job in Pittsburgh I could not personally come to pay my respects. The reason I feel badly about this is that when I first arrived in The Blade newsroom from Pittsburgh in March 1993, it was Homer who was among the first to welcome me. And it was Homer who first invited me out to have a beer with him, you and Tom G at...

I met Homer at Arnies! He was a good man and a better friend! Not many like him! I will miss him! My condolences to his family!

Our hearts go out to you at this time and in the days ahead.

My condolences. Homer was a great reporter and a great person. I always loved our conversations in the newsroom. He was always willing to help when I was a cub reporter.

CHRIS, JON, AND MARC,
