Please except our sincere condolences during this sad time. My memories of Brian consist of many good times at Camp Dubois with the Montessori clan, the Odyssey of the Mind excursions around the country, and the fund raisers at Bush stadium.

I went to grade school and high school with Brian and considered him one of my best friends at the time. We shared a lot of good times together with other friends growing up in Fairview Heights playing wiffle ball, left field ball, riding minibikes, shooting BB guns, sledding, and on and on. He was always mechanically inclined, working on his motorcycle and '67 Cougar. Its not surprising to hear all the good things about Brian. Even in his young days he was very outgoing, charismatic, and gregarious. Rest in peace brother Knight of Columbus!

I have heard many great things about Brian from Debbie, Tom and Mary Kay Peter. I was sorry that I only met him once at my baby shower last year in St. Louis. He will truly be missed. Your family is in our thoughts. God Bless!

Susan, we share your grief. Please know that Brian was one of my best golf buddies and one of the nicest guys I've ever known. I never knew him to be in a bad mood, and his optimism and enthusiasm for life were contagious. News of his death came as quite a shock. The last email he sent me ended like this: "Life is too short. Let's have some fun."
He will be missed, but not forgotten.

I worked with Brian for several years at Boeing. He was someone you could count on when in need and took nothing in return. His family was very important to him and he spoke of them often. He was always so proud of his daughter and had pictures of her everywhere. We will be thinking of you and your family.

You were always the sweetest, kindest young man that I have ever known. You made everyone in our family very proud of you. I think that I will remember all of the late night softball games and then the hour or so stops at Hardee's to rehash what was good or bad about the games that you, Larry and Tommy just got done playing. Thank You for never telling Mary Kay that she could not call you uncle. Give your dad, my dad and everyone else a kiss and hug for all of us. I will miss you so much.
