Brian was my son-in-law, I will always remenber the day Lil B was born he was so small and I look up at Big Brian and said now the reasponsibilty begins. He told me I am going to always be there for my son and he was. He took great joy in being a father and he loved his son very much. Lil B had stopped breathing when he was a week old and Brian was in the back seat with Lil B shaking him so he would cry. when we got to the hospital they sent him to childrens and put him on a respirator and Brian looked at me and said I can't lose him. And I knew neither could I and we cried together and watched that boy. When Lil B came home that was the best day for him. I will miss Brian and I know he will always be in our hearts. We will always remind Lil B how much his Dad loved him.

Mine and Tyrone's daughter, Tianna, "Big Girl" as Brian called her, will remember all that has been said about her uncle. On the morning of 12-31-07, Brian was singing, whistling and with a big smile on his face while brushing his teeth. Tianna gave him his usual morning hug and "hello!" and he reminded her, unusually that morning, that she was to remember he would always love her. She told him "you are silly, Uncle Brian!" Brian touched her heart. Daily she reminds me how she wishes he could come back down from God to play chalk with her while the boys, Trent, Andrew, Litl' B and Jordan played football in the side yard. That sometimes it is just no fun without Uncle Brian. Tianna and Litl' B have been getting along fine. When they get into an arguement you can hear one or the other, or both, look up to Heaven and tell on eachother. Litl' B says, "see, now I told my Dad on you." We talk about the things Brian used to do for Litl' B was he was a baby. I remember the one time, Brian was watching Tianna and he was suppose to give her chicken for dinner and told Tyrone and I that she ate really well. Two days later, I am making myself a sandwich and found all Tianna's chicken hiding in a container, when I asked Brian what it was, he tried to cover it up for her telling me he thought he would have eaten it by the time I found it. Now that I am laughing, I wish to express gratitude to all who have shared prayers and thoughts to Tyrone, me, Mary Taylor, Trent, Tianna, Little B, and Max. Personally I ask that all of you love one another. Brian showed that above all else to everyone and he had no limits to forgiveness. Our love, Sarah and Tianna Ferguson

Lil B...that's what all Ty's boys called him cuz he was like our lil brother. But Brain had turned into such a man with a family not to mentioned he was taller then all of us you changed it from lil B to just "B". Brian was a giver, he gave whatever he had, his time, his humor, his caring spirit, anything that made the people around him happy. Sorry I could be there B for your going home celebration, but shall see each other again. My condolences go out to Brain's son "lil B" as well as to US cuz we lost a good friend, Uncle, Father, and Brother. I will miss you Champ!!

My deepest condolences go out to Brian's family and friends. Brian I want you to know how much Jordan loved you he was remembering his last moments with you while we were in the car on new years eve, he told me you guys shared some laughs, and ate subs, and chicken wings on Sunday, and that you and him made plans to play basketball at UB this Friday he was very, very sad that you and him wouldnt have the chance to do that again, and when we went to the store i asked Jordan what he wanted and he told me he just wanted Brian back. I told Jordan to remember all the good times you both had together, and to hold on to those moments to help him get threw this very difficult time. I also told him to be strong for little Brian, and to look out for him as you would. I am so sorry this happend, Brian had so much to live for. We all love, and miss you.
Love, Kristina,Omar

I considered Brian as a good friend, and a loving stepfather to my son Jordan, he was always there when you needed him. We went to the same highschool,we got into some trouble at times, but we had more good times than bad. Now that he is gone I will sadly miss him, and I will look out for his son little Brian, just like he looked out for my son Jordan. "See you at the Crossroads" Love your homie Omar.

Brian is family to us. Brian is the wonderful uncle and close friend of my loving grandson. I could have searched the entire world, and I would have still handpicked Bri Bri to be Trent's favorite uncle. He is also the dear friend of Mary, just like a brother to her, and a friend to Anne, Cerene, and me. I could not help but feel joyous and happy around Brian because of his infectious laughter and love for life.
We love, admire, and respect you, Brian, and will truly miss you. We will never forget you! When we look to the heavens, you will be sitting on the brightest star gazing down upon us.
