Brian James HIGGINS

I just became aware of Brian's passing in an online search of his name in anticipation of a visit to Vancouver this summer. I traveled with Brian and his then wife Teresa in Europe for several months in 1973-74. I remember a charismatic, adventurous young man that that loved life on the road. He was special.

Just heard of Brian's passing. Brian was a great guy,smart, friendly'principled and personable in the extreme.I played a lot of poker with Brian about 30 years ago and at that time Brian was Gerald McRaney's doppleganger. He is the only person that I have known that was the spitting image of celebrity that was on television weekly at that time.I think Brian enjoyed being mistaken for McRaney. You left too soon Brian. Affectionally and respectfully, John Aalborg.

I just learned of your loss a few days ago from a mutual friend. My condolences to all of Brian's brothers and sisters, to the whole Higgins clan, and to his wife.

RIP Brian

A number of us from '67 attended yesterday at Northview. Lindsay, McNulty, MacDonald, Folka and myself.

Deepest thoughts and condolences to you Kevin and your family.

Brian was a friend to each of us (very easily so) and to all he touched since STM years.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember him.

Brian was a great teacher and a very entertaining person to talk with. His presentations to legal advocates were very dynamic and all those who were trained by him appreciated his work.

Brian was a generous and giving soul. He will be missed greatly by all those that knew him. Even the casual acquaintance, like myself. RIP.

So sorry to hear of Brian's passing. We went thru elementary & high school together. The memories we keep after 50 plus years fade somewhat but give me a smile.He will be missed at our Golden Grad next year.Condolences to all the family. Rick King

Love and prayers to all loved ones. You are in my heart.

To Brian's family and loved ones I am deeply sorry for your loss. I was one of the many students who learned from Brian at LSLAP. It is incredible to think of the countless lives he touched through UBC clients, students, colleagues. I will be forever grateful to him for guiding me, as a first year student, to assisting my first clients. He was my first example in this profession. I was very fortunate.

He spread so much light and compassion in the world-- I'll miss Brian a lot. RIP.

sorry to hear the bad news-was a highly regarded moral soul with a great sense of humour-the year I coached along Brian with the westside warriors- was one of the best times of my life-also played with Brian at the poker clubs and was respected and was a gentleman-he will be missed by those who knew him-RIP

Brian and I dated many many years ago, my deepest sympathy to the family on the shocking news. My heart is sad for your loss. Dianne
