My name is Joni Montoy (Burton). I was thinking of Brian yesterday and the rest of my first cousins. I googled his name as I have lost all contact with the family. I was devastated to learn he had past away. My heart is broken. We were very close when I lived with the family. My love and prayers go out to the family. I have many wonderful memories of all my cousins but was always closest to Brian close to same age. I lived with the family in the late 70's. Julie I think I remember you from high school I remember him always talking about you. He really loved you. May God bless you and your family and know that he is in heaven with his loved ones. With Love Joni Montoy ( I would have attended his service but I had no idea so sorry)

Julie I know that many people say I'm sorry for your loss especially when they don't know what to say but those are the words that I deeply feel. Brian just turned into a softie when he meet you and I know he loved you and your family like no others. My heart and prayers continue to be with all of you. ❤

I am truly sorry for Julie , both Krista and Nicole and sweet Caden, his Grandson. My condolences to his family and his many friends.
Brian touched so many people with his generous spirit, he was a very good man and a true friend. Brian and I grew up in the same neighborhood and on many occasion played games and had fun.
Throughout the years as we both grew up we stayed friends and eventually became close . When he married my very good friend Julie I was overjoyed for the both of them . He stepped up and was a very good father to both Krista and Nicole and a tremendously wonderful papa to his grandson Caden.
I again send my condolences to the family and remind everyone that if Brian was in your life you were lucky person .
Remember Brian with a smile, I'm sure he would've wanted it that way.
With love and blessings to all,
Sally and husband Jerry Dupré

I am truly sorry for the loss of Brian. He was always very welcoming and kind. I will miss him hanging out in the kitchen or peeking over the couch and saying "Hey, Sherry!" when I come over to visit. I sent Julie and Krista a card but continuing to send my love, support and sympathy. I am going to try to make the journey home for the service. Love you you guys.
