I will miss seeing Brian on the lanes. We were supposed to be teammates at Mountainville in the Trios league this year. Always the competitor no matter what the league or tournament. Once you became a friend of Brians' you were never forgotten by him. He was always concerned about you.

Rest in peace my friend.

I am quite shocked to hear of Brian's passing. I am the neighbor his father met at the mail boxes that morning. We cannot believe he is gone. We shared many different things like attending the same high school etc. He was a wonderful neighbor and if his parents could please contact us we would appreciate it. We are sorry to hear of your loss as are the rest of our neighbors. He was a great man. He is in a better place but much to young to leave us. Love, Michelle and Children

Brian and I were friends for many years. I worked with him many years ago at Wagner Appliance Parts. He was one of the sweetest people I've ever known. He was always there for you. Brian was one of my best friends, we had good times together, and I will always have the memories. I was proud to have him in my life. Brian, I'll always remember you, you were very special to me. You'll always have a place in my heart. God Bless you.

My family and I would like to pass on our sincerest condolences to the Bilheimer family. When we lived in Allentown, I bowled on the same team with Brian for many years on Friday nights at Boulevard Lanes and Brian truly was one of the nicest guys you could ever want to meet. I will always remember our friendly little arguments over who was the better football team, Cowboys or Steelers, and having some cold ones in Little Johns Pub. Rest in Peace my friend.

Jan and I are deeply saddened by Brian's passing. Brian was a fierce competitor on the maples but he never gave himself enough credit for the skill level he had attained. Off the lanes, Brian was ready to go the extra mile for you. I cannot imagine not seeing him in any bowling house. I pray that Brian may rest in peace in the Grace of God.

I am very shocked and saddened to hear about the passing of Brian. Brian and I bowled together on Friday nights on the same team for quite a few years. He would always find a way to ease the tension of a bad game. Not only was Brian a great bowler, he was also a great person who would do anything he could to help a friend. I always said I would rather bowl with Brian than against him! He was that good.

Brian will be missed and never forgotten. Carry on my friend.

I Knew Brian for many years through bowling and working at Wagner's. Brian was probably one of the good guys in the world. I do not think Brian had a mean bone in his body. I just saw him a few months ago while he was in Reno for the ABC tournament. He will be missed!
