I was only privileged for a couple of years to know Brian back in high school. I have known if his successes with baseball over the years. He made such an impact on me in the classes that we had and I always recognised whenever I saw his name or heard his name in the paper or with old friends. He was truly. One of a kind. I will never forget his humor or smile. Rest in peace old friend.

Kathleen, Bailey and Bubba. There are no words to express how incredibly sorry we are for the loss of Brian. It was an honor to get to know him in the last few years. He was always friendly, funny, down to earth and an all around great guy who loved his family you could tell. Life will never be the same. We are praying you feel Gods arms wrapped around you in this time and we promise to help you remember and honor Brian. We love your family. Love, Eric, Tara, Stella and Hannah Zobrist

Ellen Jean and Family,
Though you will always be Jeannie to the Hund girls, my heart is breaking in a million pieces having just seen Brian's obituary. There are no words of comfort that could be conveyed to possibly ease the heartache you are feeling. Having wanting to see you so desperately at Rob's service it just wasn't meant to be. Such a loss. Do you remember me (Kate) going with you to the ER at St. E's the night Brian stuck a peanut up his nose? That was the night he became "my bud"! That will be my forever memory. Please know that the love, prayers, thoughts and treasured memories remain with us for you and all your family forever!

The Hund Girls,
Kate, Judy and Barbara

Rick, Jean, Richie and family, Kathleen, Bailey and Brian Jr., Words cannot express how truly sorry I am for your loss. I knew Brian from a young age, had the pleasure of playing baseball with him. His talent on the ball field was evident from an early age. I ran into him recently, he still had that infectious smile. Truly was a friend to all he knew. Please accept my deepest sympathies.

Kathleen, Bailey and Bubba.. I am so sorry to hear about Brian, your loving husband .. and your Daddy. What I will always remember is his smile and the pure joy I always saw in his face as he watched you play Soccer Bailey.. and Bubba while you and Hannah were playing together during the games. Your Daddy loved you and you both brought him such joy... and I could see how proud he was of you two! Kathleen my heart hurts for you and your precious kids.. and I cant imagine.. but what I do know is that Jesus loves you and holds you and comforts you like none other. I will be praying for God to give you strength. Love, Bonnie Bahr (Grammy to Stella & Hannah Zobrist)

Jean & Rick, no words can help how you feel. Brian was a good person, he always had a smile on his face and ready to play ball. Never once as a coach or when I was officiating his ball games he always had a smile on his face and something positive to say. He will be greatly missed. You have my deepest sympathy.

Dear Rick & Jean, Bob & I would like to send our deepest sympathy to you and your family. We are Dwayne "Bubba" Johnston parents and will always remember all the great ballgames we went to. Dwayne & Brian were great players and it was always a pleasure to watch them play. Dwayne has been gone for almost 8 years and we have great memories of him and all the ballgames he played. We are sure that Brian & Dwayne are in heaven ready to get a ballgame started. You will always have great memories of Brian and you will also enjoy watching his two sons grow up and make new memories. Please accept Bob & I deepest sympathy

Dear family and friends we have known Brian since he was born. He and Harvey, Stephie and Kenny were raised together at Millie And Cottens by Patti. Brian had a mega watt smile and a personality like none other. He was a shining star from day #1. We share in your great loss. Unimaginable pain that you are going is only lessened by knowing he is with Christ. Never let anyone rush you through grief and never compare. We will as always be praying for you and the children. Sending Love, prayer and angels. God bless you we love y'all so much.
