I was blessed to meet Brian at IU, and I caught thinking about him today, just wanted to sent my prayers to all of his family and loved ones. He passed the day my ex wife and i found out we were pregnant. Guess that was his little parting gift for me. My only regret is I didn’t spend more time with him. Peace be with you all. Romans 8:18.

Katie Symons, should you come back to read this page again, at any time in your lifetime, I want you to know that when I think of Brian, almost daily, I remember how happy he was with you as his true love. We are all doing okay, missing Brian, but I know with all my heart that he has never left my side, our sides. He is with me. Ask for him, he will come to your side. He would want you happy, as do i. Much love Katie, much love. Be in touch, my email hasn't changed. [email protected]

Remembering you today. This past couple years have been really hard. I have shut out a lot of things that made me happy. Today I really wish it wasn´t true that you are still gone. I miss you deeply and I wish I could change what has happened. I pray for your family and I wish I could visit and give you the goodbye that I have been meaning to give to you for years. My heart pours for you. I know you are resting in heaven and I pray for peace.
I miss you very much. I wish I could talk to you.

Brian's time here on Earth was far too short, but he left us with wonderful, warm, happy memories to cherish. His smile lit up the room, and warmed us with the love and joy it conveyed. His great spirit will always be with us. He made the world a better place!

Angels danced on the day Brian was born as he left Heaven to join us on Earth. His bright smile and sweet spirit enriched us all. We are better for having had him with us. I will carry him in my heart until the day I can hug him again in Heaven. -- Nonna

Dear family and friends of Brian,
I am deeply sorry for your loss in this difficult time. I shared many memories with Brian in high school at Cathedral, including countless productions in the theater department and also our senior retreat. He always knew how to make me laugh and smile. He was a fine man and I will never forget his kindness to me as long as i live.
May you find comfort in this difficult time.
Peace.
