Dear Kelly and Family,
I'm helping a Saintsman this weekend on his Eagle Scout project...planting Purple Vines along the Football Field Fence. Although there may not be a plaque for Brian, I will always call it Brian's Spirit Fence....and will say a prayer for him and for you each time I pass by it!
Just like Jesus, he is NOT forgotten.

Dearest Goebel and Mooney families, we think of you and your son very often and pray for your comfort through Christ. We have a son who will graduate from Saints this year. My son sat next to Bryan in English class in the 10th grade. He says he will never forget Bryan and the impact his passing had on him! May you continue to rest your thoughts in the memory of this beautiful face! God Bless, Martinez Family North Park

Dan, Kelly & Caitlin:
I cannot put into words how sorry I am for your loss. The Goebel's and the Orey's have known each other for over twenty-five years. Over the years we have unfortunately drifted apart. Although, I still have many memories of our friendship that I treasure. I was shocked to read about Bryan's passing in the paper. I read the obituary over and over, each time hoping I had the name wrong.
I never was privileged to get to know Bryan; however, I do remember when Maureen, Shane and I visited at your recently purchased home, and we were all introduced to the newly arrived Bryan. Thank you for having given us this opportunity.
With Deepest Regards,

Our deep hearted condolences for your loss. Bryan is now in one of those rooms in heaven that our Lord Jesus promised us. John 14:1-3: Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God still, and trust in me. There are many rooms in my Father's house; if there not I should have told you. I am going now to prepare a place for you, and after I have gone and prepared you a place, I shall return to take you with me; so that where I am you may be too.... We are praying for Bryan and his family. For this family, Bryan is another one of our guardian angels whom we ask for their intercession. We have heard nothing but good things about Bryan through our daughter. May God be with you in this time of grief.

I am very sorry for your loss. This Saints Mom's Prayer has always brought me comfort.
Dear God,
Thank you for the gift of my son, and for the privilege of raising him. Send me the patience to listen to him, and the perseverance to support him when he is in need.
Show me the way to love him without smothering him, confront him without destroying his spirit, and encourage him without creating false hopes.
Let me know when to come to his aid, and send me the wisdom to pull back and let him discover leasons on his own. Help me to teach him about You and Your Son, so that he will love You and trust in You as I do.
Grant me the freedom from daily frustrations, and remind me that a good sense of humor is a gift from You. Bestow on me the ability to forgive and be forgiven, and to understand that my role is to set my son free and to cherish the years we have together.
Amen.
