Brian was an exceptional man and enjoyed our long talks. He worked with my brother and I met him years ago. Had a lot of good times with him and will miss his smile.

My thoughts are with The Poedels and all of their extended family and friends. Brian's daughter Michelle was an intern with our TV station in Milwaukee while completing her degree in atmospheric science. I know how much she loved her dad. Brian had a tough battle with cancer but is at peace now. May all who are left to mourn have peace as well.
