I remember Mr. McIntyre as a great P.E.teacher at Cedar Hill Jr. Secondary in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Rest in peace. Peace to your family as well.

Lynn and family;
My condolences. I grew up with Brian in "Shacktown". We were close friends all through out junior and senior high. We each took different paths after high school and we never connected again. That will be one of my greatest regrets.

Great loss.Had him as a teacher at Cedar Hill in the 80's. We take people like him for granted and only remember how important they are later in life. Helps to make us the people we are today and little did we know that he would help us later in life to guide our own children. The depth of a great person should add life to those he leaves behind. Very sure he did that. My condolences and prayers to all his family and friends.Everyone take a lap for BIG MAC!!!

I remember him well from Cedar Hill 1975-77. For us "not too tall" guys Big Mac was a gentle giant. The patience and understanding required by Junior High School teachers reserves them a special peaceful place in the here after.

Mr. Mcintyre - he is a man who my friends and I always remember. As a teacher, he was friendly and encouraging. It was on the basketball floor that Mr. McIntyre influenced us the most. He was ahead of his time and would today be called a "player's coach". Coach Mac was so positive and took joy in the game - something that has echoed and carried through my own life. It was under Mac's coaching that I met my two best friends in the world. The three of us always swap great stories of our basketball seasons with Coach Mac.
I know he would be happy to know that he brought us three life-long friends together. In the time since he was our coach and teacher, we have all become teachers, and fathers. We coach - oh how we coach - and give back like Mac taught us. Always positive, and looking at the good in the youth that we have the privilege to work with. Mr. McIntyre , was a mentor that affected our entire lives. Thank you Mr. Mcintyre.

I am so sorry to hear of Brian's passing. I knew Mr. Mac as both a teacher and a family friend. There was a deep and special bond among many of the teachers at Cedar Hill Jr. Secondary for many years. I was so fortunate to be able to witness it and even share in it a tiny bit (I still have such fond memories of me sitting at the piano, Brian playing the guitar sort of :) and us pounding out some tunes at my folks' house at the occasional gathering at the Crawfords'). And when my father passed away, Brian was so kind to my mother, year after year. Thank you, Brian.
Our deepest condolences to Lynne, the kids and grandkids. Please know how much he was appreciated and loved by the people whose lives he touched. (I'm sure you already do.)

I met Brian when I joined the Tuesday golf group. As I was the newest member at that time, I was quiet in the beginning and listened to the veterans.
