Shannane, My deepest thoughts and prayers to you, your beautiful children and family. I am truly sorry for the lost of Brian. You may remember me, I worked for PC in the Option Dept. then in Case Management. I currently reside in North Carolina and I feel terrible that I can't attend the services. I knew Brian for many years, he always had that smile that brightened a good or bad situation. He cared about people and would help whenever he could.
Please know, my prayers are with him, you and your children; even from North Carolina. God Bless you.

Keeping all of you in my prayers. May God keep you and strengthen you now and forever especially now in this present time of sorrow. Brian was a wonderful person. Always smiling and laughing. Just so happy-go-lucky. He will always be remembered and missed dearly. It's difficult for me to say goodbye to someone I've known for over a decade. So I won't say goodbye. Instead I'll say until we meet up again, Brian. Love and blessings to you, Shannane and the your children as well as to the rest of your family.
