My family remembers Brian very well. Years ago, my dad, got an award and there were 2 classmates that presented the award to my dad. One of those classmates was Brian. My whole family sends their condolences to Brian and his entire family. We are so sorry for your loss.

I remember Brian as a great kid growing up in the old neighborhood; played in some really good bands; I am so proud of the accomplishments he was able to acheive and send my deepest sympathy to his family and friends.
