Brian was my brother and I miss him so much.
We will always remember him and all the memories we had together.
Thanks everybody for writing some messages about Brian and the memories we all had together with him. Brian was a great friend, a star track runner back in school days, a master bricklayer, my best friend growing up.

I shared some of the best days of my life working with Brian. Memories I will not forget. A sharing man. My sincerest condolences to his family. God bless.

Brian was like a son to me. Right out of high school he asked me if I could teach him to lay brick. Unlike numerous others, he was serious. He was my number one mason for years. His character and work ethic was impeccable.
He will be sincerely missed by all of us who knew him

Last year, around this time, we took a family trip to Cedar Point. Brian spent two days riding roller coaster after roller coaster with his son, niece and nephew. Brian loved to do anything they wanted to do with no complaints. Whatever made them happy he was all for.
I'm so glad that we have this wonderful memory of Brian. I can honestly say my son Nathan (Brians nephew) only has wonderful memories of his uncle. Brian will always have a special place in our hearts and memories.

Brian was my student while in Nursing School. He was so soft spoken, caring, and a hard worker. He was a wonderful student. I am sorry to hear of his passing and I am praying for Brian and his family.

Brian was a classmate during nursing school. He was kind, compassionate, and funny. We had a lot of laughs while completing our extremely tough nursing degree. He loved his son and we all knew it. He glowed when he spoke about him. I'm so sorry to hear of his passing. Crystal W
