Brian Carlin Obituary
8, of Phoenix, Arizona passed away on May 14, 2010. Our sweet son Brian rose above this life much too soon. For those whom Brian touched, he will be remembered as the brightest light, the kindest soul, and the epitome of love.

He is survived by his parents Beckie and Brian, his most beloved twin brother Michael, his grandparents Lynda and Mike Carlin, Damian Fairbanks and Lynn and Mark Klinger, great grandparents Wilma and Art Fairbanks and Josephine and Robert LaBelle. He will be missed by his adored cousin Cindy and her family Steve and Annie Margaret, as well as all of his uncles, aunts and cousins. His family extended past relatives to his multitude of friends. We are all better for knowing him. Services are at 9:00 am on May 20th at St. Francis Church in Phoenix. Arrangements have been made through Whitney Murphy Funeral Home.

BC and Beckie-
I have watched in the studio this week groups of mothers, teenage girls, down to our youngest dancers sharing the news about their friend Brian. I watched them wipe away tears and then begin to share a fun memory or inspirational story about him. Pretty soon another family would join in. All knowing him from different places, school, summer camp, baseball, and friends. What a young leader in our community!! What amazing parents you are! Know that you are surrounded by support!!!

What a sweet boy, and now your own angel. I knew Brian and Mom from our office as I did his echos. Prayers and thoughts to your family at this sad time.
