So sorry to hear about Bryan. I know Bryan from working with him at Tennant and had him as a bowling teammate at Sundance years ago. He was a great guy and I have good memories of him.

Working with Brian during my career at Tennant has been a tremendous gift. He teaches to think before acting, listen before speaking. He spoke often of Kathy and the boys. It was easy to appreciate Brian. I feel lucky to have share some time with him.

To Bryan's family, I'm so sorry about your loss. I had the good fortune of working with Bryan at Tennant. He was a wonderful and kind man. He would always take time to talk and was so genuine. May you find peace in these tough days ahead. You're my thoughts and prayers.

Our deepest sympathy to the family of Bryan. My folks where good friends with Mable and Walter.
Saw Bryan at the Burnsville High School all class reunion last August and enjoyed talking to him and Kathy. Hoping he would beat his cancer.
