my name is zachary thomas, and i have worked with brien for the past two and a half years. not at wegmas, but at the second full time job he had @ NAFT. it saddens me to have lost such a great warehouse, dispatcher, and most of one of the best friends out there. there were plenty of time that i would be feeling down and just wanted to quit my job, but brien somehow got me to stay, as well as smile. every morning when i came to work he was always in the best moods. so me being the non morning person i am, i asked him... how do you wake up in such a good mood? he told me i look in the miorror and say this will be a good day. well my prayers go out to his family and friends. brien will live on forever in our hearts:-}
