Although I have not seen Brian for years, I always remembered him as a good friend and good person. I wish I could have kept in touch but our lives led us separate ways. I am sincerely sorry for your loss, he was a great guy, I wish you all the best.

There are no words to ever express the loss of a person so wonderful. Brian and I met in high school 14 years ago. Through all his travels and expriences we have remained close. Always smiling, ready to go, ready for an intellectual talk. He had this knack for making you think to yourself "Yeah, I can do that" because he believed it could happen.
I am sorry to you, his family, for such a great loss and know that through the life he lived, adventurous, interesting and loving, he will live in us all, everyday.
Goodbye my dear friend, I love you!
