I too lost my adult son this year. God bless you in this time of sorrow. My sons name was also Bryon. I like to think--"It was not the length of their life--but the majestic depth of it". May I join you in celebrating the lives of our sons.
I really hope this can bring a smile! To the Whites, and the Shamys. I love you, Kirsten

Dear Dr. White, Claire and Family
My sincere sympathy to each of you. I remember Brian as a little boy at the dental office or the pool parties at your home. By the looks of the family pictures, and what I read about Brian, he lived life with passion, excitment and greatly valued his family and friends. What a wonderful opportunity for someone like myself to visit a small part of Brian's life and see who he became over the years. My thoughts and prayers will be with you all.
Sincerely,
Toby Haske

Dear Dr. White & family,
I opened your personal message regarding your son Brian this morning.
I am deeply sadded by the tragic loss of your son Brian. I am a new patient of yours, and so we have met recently and briefly.
Your son's death once again awakens my grief for the adult son I lost 7 years ago. I cannot compare my loss to yours and I cannot possibly realize your painful loss. But I do understand what it is like to lose a son so young.
Please accept my sincere sympathy. It appears that you have many, many friends that share your grief. I trust they will surround you with their love and understanding and compassion and do whatever it is that you and your family need.
Do whatever your heart tells you to grieve, celebrate Brian's life and his love for you. He lives on in your hearts and will forever.
I am so very sorry.
Jovonna D.

My sincere sympathy goes out to the entire family. I hope that comfort can be found in God's Word the bible at Rvelation 21:3,4. This scripture was able to give me comfort when i lost my loved ones in death. May we all look forward to this promise that death, pain, and all the former things that cause grief will soon be done away with.

The services for Brian were held today, and I was honored to be there to hear the stories and loving memories told by his family and friends. In reading the many entries in this guest book and seeing the many more who attended the services inside the church, which became standing room only along the walls, and the many more who may not have been able to get inside, I became aware of the many, many lives that Brian touched in his short, tragically too short, time with us and especially with Lauren. I knew Brian only for a couple of years through working with him off and on at Cameo Studios when we would meet up to photograph a prom or other event at a local high school. I began to know him better one summer while helping out at the studio for a couple of months. Tony Caminiti, his friend first, co-worker second, and boss third, hit the nail-on-the-head, when he said that it is a great testament to Brian to see the number of lives he touched in his short life in seeing the number of people who came to pay thier respects. I feel a sense of loss now for not being able to know him even better, but I know it pales in comparison to the loss felt by Lauren for not being able to know him longer, or for his daughter, who will not have a chance to meet him at all. Yet, Brian will be known to Mackenzie through the many stories, mostly humorous I think, that will be told by his family and friends. I think I will count myself lucky if I have touched half the number of lives in my whole lifetime as Brian did in his too short 27 years. Lauren, I am so very sorry for your loss. You were cheated the most. Brian was taken from you far too soon. Yet a part of him will be with you for the rest of your life; in Mackenzie he will always be remembered.

Bill and I are saddened by the news of your son's tragic death and we send our hearfelt sympathies to you and the girls. Bill and I remember a group of us as young couples meeting weekly together at Westminister Presbyterian Church in Bay City, Michigan. We studied how to live the Christian life how to be good spouses, and how to be good parents. We studied Larson and Miller and Ogilvie. We praised God. We were good church goers, and we were good parents. We never thought it possible that one of our children could die before us. But we learned that as parents our arms are not long enough and our laps are not big enough to hold our children forever. That's why we believe in God and heaven, the resurection of Christ and the life everlasting. Christ's arms are long enough and his lap is big enough for our children. We see Brian on God's lap.

When I heard of this tragedy tears came immediately to my eyes. I was in the middle of teaching a first grade class and got a text from Kristin, which never happens. My first reaction was praying for all of you and Brian. Please know that my heart goes out to all of you and my thoughts and prayers for strength and peace have been coming your way. You are a wonderful, loving family and I am so thankful to know you. I love you all and will miss Brian very much.

Today is Friday, May 2, and we have just learned of the accident that took Brian's life. We are shocked and saddened that such a young life and a new family relationship has come to a tragic end. We are so sorry to hear of this, but want Lauren to know that we are thinking of her and the family, and our prayers are for you as you mourn this great loss. We never were able to meet Brian, but knew that he was the joy of Lauren's life. Our sympathies and love go out to the entire family. God Bless.

Kristen, Bryan, Claire, Bruce,Lauren and the rest of the White clan,
I was sick when Mia told me the tragic news of Brian's accident. I cannot imagine what that is like for all of you? I have only interacted with Brian a few times, but I have been around the rest of his family a lot and the love and support that pours from those individuals is incredible. I am picturing Claire's HUGE smile that she always has and thinking of how she is so loving and kind to everyone. I am sure that smile is not as bright as it once was and that makes me sad.
Cry, hug, and laugh as much as you need to. Mia and I wish we were there to support you in this time, but our positive energy is being sent every day.
Much love and future smiles,
Brooks

As trivial as it may sound at first, I am Lisa's hairstylist.
I was not fortunate enough to know Brian, Lauren or the rest of this amazing family as of this writing. I look forward to knowing you sometime and seeing Mackenzies beautiful face.
Of course I heard of this tragedy when it happened and my heart broke. Two days later found out that it was my friend and client's brother.
After hearing the stories on that day from Lisa and Eric of Brian's character, how much he meant to this family my heart broke once again.
The stain that is left on my being is not who this man was and who he left behind but the family antics. The closeness of this family.
I want you to know as a wise woman who has lived a life that has had it's challenges and observes life and pays attention to others lives so clearly....what has touched my heart the most is the closeness and love that this family shares.
There is nothing greater in life.
Hold on tight and be thankful for this. Not everyone has this.
I am thankful that you have one another and the cheerful memories of this loving practical jokster.
You are truly blessed by God.
Without knowing all of you, my love is with you all and prayers of quick peace.
With peace and love,

Kristin and Lisa,
I can only imagine losing a sibling must be like a piece of you suddenly went missing. Kristin, I love you and wish I could be there to give you a hug. Please call me whenever you want to talk.
Mr. and Mrs. White,
My heart breaks when trying to conceive of the grief you must experience losing a child.
And Lauren,
I've never met you but I know how much you are a part of the White family which is a testament to Brian's love for you. I hope you can find strength and peace in the knowledge that Mackenzie will KNOW that her father was a great man and that he is always watching over you.
I am so sorry for the loss of this wonderful man who meant so much to so many. You are all in my thoughts daily. With love,

I had the pleasure of meeting Brian last month when Nick was in Dallas visiting....he was a wonderful and kind person- we had a fun night laughing and getting to know each other. A true aviation enthusiast and good dancer I must say! Brian kept telling me how excited he was to become a father! My heart crys for you and your family as I am also saying good bye to a increadible person in my life. I feel fortunate to have met Brian and want you to know you are in my thoughts and prayers!

White Family,
I am an alum of NAU and Sigma Nu who graduated a while before your son/husband attended. I didn't know him, but was greatly saddened when I heard the news. I speak for my family and all of the Sigma Nu Eta Iota alum when I say our thoughts and prayers are with you. In learning more of Brian the same phrase was consistently spoken, "the greatest guy you'd ever meet." If there is anything the alumni chapter can do for your family at any time please do not hesitate to contact any of us.
Deepest sympathies,

Dear Lauren,
I'm a cousin of Nick's and I just wanted to let you know how sorry I am that you also lost a loved one last week. I can only assess that Nick surrounded himself with wonderful people, including Brian and yourself. I say this because even in a time of deepest sorrow for yourself you take the time to write your thoughts on Nick's guest book. This means a lot to his family and I want you to know that I have been praying for you and MacKenzie as well as Brian's family. I know that your baby will be a special little girl with her father looking down on her from heaven. Know that you are not alone and always call on Jesus in your times of need. Take care and God bless you and your baby.

Although it has been years, I want to let you know how terribly sorry I am for your loss. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Brian has left you with a special gift and his spirit will live on through your daughter.

Everytime I think of Brian I can see his smile and still hear his laugh. He was such an amazing person and just so much fun to be around. We were so happy to see he and Lauren together...he brought my little sis such joy! You are such a neat, neat family and it so great to watch what unending support you provide each other...we will continue to hold you all closely in prayer. Much love, Michelle, Bob, Trey and Kelsey Hobbs

I will cherish everything that you have brought to my life. To your family you are in my thoughts and prayers. Brian you are going to be missed by all.

To the entire White family,
It is very touching to read these amazing memories posted by friends and family members. Brian was an incredible person and will certainly be missed by all. Our family always looked forward to seeing Brian at family gatherings. He had such a positive outlook on life, and was a joy to be around. Brian was fantastic with all the kids. He had the kind of energy it takes to keep them entertained. I know he would have been an excellent father.
We love you Lauren and Brian

Brian, I am so lucky to have gotten close to you and Lauren these last few years. You lived life to the fullest and your light touched all who knew you. What I remember most are the practical jokes, your selflessness in helping others, getting me to do things I normally wouldn’t do and your ability to make all of us smile & laugh through it all. You made my life a better one for having known you & taught me much about what is important. I miss you greatly but know that you will be with us always! You are my brother and my friend. God be with you! All my love,

It has taken me a long time to be able to write something in here. There are no words to describe what an incredible person you were. You were always willing to play legos (and sometimes barbies)with me as a kid. As an adult you were always the first one to help me with whatever I needed (watch my cats, build the swing set, plant bushes, and fix the sprinklers). You were much more than a brother to me. I am so thankful that we lived so close to each other. I was able to spend more time with you and I really got a chance to know Lauren better. Thanks to you I have gained an incredible friend in Lauren. My kids also got a chance to see their "chunky doo" more often. It was so much fun watching you play with Peyton and Erin. They truly adored you and could not wait to see you. Their eyes would light up every time they talked to you on the phone or saw you. I know you were going to be an amazing father. I love you and miss you very much!

God brings special people into our lives that we might learn from them, whose hearts are full of love, with twinkling eyes and a million dollar smile, this appears to be your Brian. May God grant you strength and peace during this time. I just learned that my two sons, Brad and Matt were in Sigma Nu with Brian at NAU. They have fun memories of a friend, a great guy, and good bro.
God Bless You

I had the pleasure of working with Brian for almost seven years at his father's dental practice. He would come through that door and I would look up and see that mischievous smile and wonder what am I in for today. What tricks is he going to pull on me today? He was always trying to get me in trouble with the boss. I would try to think of different ways I could get back at him and finally my day came. It was April 1st and when he came in that day I told him he needed to go to Staples to pickup some supplies. I also mentioned he needed to ask for a Mr. Stapleton who was holding a special order for me. Off he went in his cheery mood. He called me from Staples to tell me there was no one there by that name. I proceeded to tell Brian that he needed to insist that he see a Mr. Stapleton and that I placed an order with him that very morning. He called me back again and insisted no Mr. Stapleton at Staples. Oh Brian, I said, it must be April Fools Day. Gotta!!!!!. As I think back over those years Bruce and Claire I can only smile for the joy, laughter and fun Brian brought into my life. Brian, thanks for being part of my life.

To Brian’s Family and Friends
I have shared many wonderful events with the White Family and am very sad to have to share Brian’s Celebration of Life Memorial. God has taken him as one of the young angels and I will remember him as a hard working, fun loving and loving person. I always enjoyed talking to him about his flying adventures and to listen to him tell about his increasing knowledge of aircraft. I will miss him and will keep him in my memory. I am ready to help and support Lauren and their daughter.
Britta Latto
April 26, 2008
Dear Claire, Bruce, Lisa, Kristen, Eric, Bryan, and most especially Lauren,
Thank you for creating and nurturing the bright spirit, Brian. I always saw him with a smile or a laugh, full of happiness, and perhaps a secret joke. I especially remember him and Lauren as they presented the “calendar” last Christmas with the “hidden” message announcing a special birth, and the joy as those not aware of the message, when they understood a new baby was on the way. He was funny, creative, smart, loyal, loving, and a million other things that you know better than I. We will feel Brian in the blowing wind. We will think of him when we see planes or birds flying. We will think of him when we look at the stars, or feel the sun. He is everywhere. He is so missed here on earth, one of God’s early angels. You are in my prayers for comfort.
Love, Britta Latto

Dear Mrs. White:
I am writing to express my deepest condolences on the loss of your husband. From the comments already left he was a kind and gentle, man, one that will be greatly missed. I just wanted to share a thought from the Bible with you at Psalms 55:22."Throw your burden upon Jehovah himself. And he himself will sustain you. Never will he allow the righteous one to totter." I know at this time you may feel all alone, noone to really talk to and understand what you are going through. Pour out your worries,fears, sadness, etc. to our Heavenly Father Jehovah and he will sustain you. Once more I am so sorry for your loss.
Sincerely,
Don & Sandy Grace

Dear White Family,

Brian you were always so funny. Wheneve i came to work with my mom at Cameo, you would always talk to me. You were a great person. You were the prankster of the office. We never told you how great we thought you were. I had really good times with you. I'm sorry for your wife and baby. I know be with them in spirit. I will never forget you. You are in my heart.

Brian was a funny guy. He always hung out with me in the back office when my mom was working at Cameo Studios. He took me on his boat and we had fun together.

Brian, I love you so much! You’ve touched all of our lives and hearts in such a special way. You’re such a fun-loving, incredible person with so much enthusiasm for life. The world is at such a loss without you. I cherish the times we’ve spent together, and especially all of the times you called to play a prank—I fell for them EVERY time! I am so deeply saddened to have lost you so soon and I miss you dearly. I go to sleep at night with tears in my eyes and wake in the morning thinking of you and Lauren and baby MacKenzie.
If I am so blessed to make it to heaven, I’ll be looking forward to you playing a practical joke on me (in heaven as it is on earth, I’m sure your personality will shine through wherever you are), and most of all to hearing your laughter and seeing your smile! It makes me smile to remember. I am so blessed to have known you! And just a bit of advice—don’t play too many pranks on the big guy up there; he might just knock that halo a little crooked.
Sending my love and prayers to all—Bruce & Claire and family, Nancy & John and family and to Ron, but most of all to Lauren—I love you, Sweetie, and baby MacKenzie, too!
Love, Aunt Sandy

i am truley saddend to hear of about Brian. He was a big part of my childhood riding bikes, swimming, and playing street hockey in front of his house. We grew apart later in life as friends sometime do, but i've always thought highly of him. He was a good friend to me and I appreciated that. Brian, Lauren, friends, and all of the family are in the thoughts and prayers of Winn family. Im glad we where friends.

Dear Lauren,
I was so happy to run into you just a few months ago and you were telling me how great married life was. My heart breaks to hear about your loss. I remember having classes with Brian throughout grade school and high school and his smile was so contagious. I will keep you and your family in my prayers and also add a prayer intention for Brian in my faith community.
