He was easy going and friendly, would help anyone that asked, and was always there to listen. He enjoyed traveling around the countryside seeing what was new and who was doing what. He was happiest when with his family and he loved the chance to share a family meal surrounded by those he loved the most.

It's been many years since I last saw Brian, but who could ever forget that big, bright, infectious smile and laugh? My sister and I were just kids tagging along with my granny and papa, Phil & Wanda Logan. Amber used to watch us sometimes when we were little. My heart absolutely breaks at such a loss. Prayers of comfort for the family. God bless you all!

Brian was one of the friendliest people you could ever meet. He acted as our chauffeur on our wedding day. We asked him where he was taking us he graciously said, "Today I am your driver, and its your day". Such a fun day. Thanks Brian, you will be missed!
