Terribly sorry for the family's loss.
Brian was my neighbor at Granada apts. years and years ago and was a really good guy to talk to...
I would run into him once in a great while and he would always remember me and was glad to talk to me about trucks and the sand drags...
I'm sure he will be missed by all who knew him.
May God bless Brian and comfort his family and friends too... Amen...
