It is with overwhelming sadness that my good friend of 40+ years has passed.
Some fond memories of Brian include having lots of laughs at Bowsher and working at Miller’s restaurant together. Playing basketball at his house and shooting pool at mine. Eating stinky chili dogs at Orange Julius followed by video games or a movie at Southwyck Mall. His love for “Styx”, lots of pizza, playing quarters, Frisch’s, Camaro’s, and endless debating about everything. But what I remember most is a friend who was loyal to a fault, one that was always there when needed.
Rest In Peace my friend...

From a childhood friend who hadn't seen Brian and his lovely wife in 20 years, and didn't know when I'd see him again, but was sure I would. My love and support to you, Editha and your family. My fondest memory is of a wonderful wedding 36 years ago. For all it's worth, the weight of your grief is shared so many others who loved that guy. Here in support, David Born and Family
