To the Davis Family:
Brian was a wonderful man with a genuine heart for God and his fellow man. Got to know him at LAMC, he taught us CPR and was fun to be around.
What a blessing to have him in our lives! Just as he watched out for people while he was on earth, I am sure he is watching out from heaven. He certainly left his mark on so many, including my husband and myself. So glad we had the pleasure of knowing him!
Our deepest sympathies are with you and you are in our prayers.

I am so sorry for you loss. Every time we interacted with Brian I remember his infectious laugh. I knew Brian on three levels, my boys baseball coach, as the firefighter who lead the senior activities at the Franklin County Fair and as a tireless advocate for Barb at Brookdale. I am sure there is no way to measure the people or the way he will be missed. The earth is a better place for him being here.
