Brian Lindsay Denyer

He was an outstanding teacher and an even better human being. I was one of his students in French for a couple years a very long time ago. He was remarkably devoted to our education and well-being. His assessments of my unspectacular work in his classes were unfailingly fair but delivered in the kindest way possible. I am sure that there were moments when he was unhappy but I don't remember seeing them. I recall him walking jauntily through the halls, greeting everyone with a smile, and appearing to be perpetually happy. It was a privilege to know him and to be one of his students.

Dear Cousin Val & Family:
Even though I only met Brian twice over perhaps a 20-year period,
it was a great pleasure to have spent significant time with you both just two years ago on your visit to Florida, and I will always remember what a friendly,
polite, and modest gentleman he was.
Brian was a great example of how a man's life should be lived, and I remember my late Mom assessing him fondly as, "What a nice guy!"
May Brian's soul rest in peace and may God bless all of you as you recover from this loss.
Warmly,
Walter Legan
Orlando, FL

Dear Val, Emily

I am saddened to learn of Brian's passing.

I knew him from the Ct Support Group meeting. I met Brian about 4 years ago. I will remember him with a smile on his face and being so genuine and kind especially to a "newbie".

I am truly sorry for your loss and hope you peace. May he rest in peace.
Sincerely, Sally Mumford

So sorry to hear about Brian. I worked with him at Taft for many years and he was a joy to know. My daughter had him for a teacher and as she has said he was one of the best. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.

My condolences to you and your family during this most difficult time, my thoughts and prays are with you and your family.

Emily,

All of us at Hunt Leibert are very sorry for your loss. Words are inadequate but we are all have you in our thoughts and prayers.

I had the pleasure of knowing Brian for 5 days during a six month period of time, 2 years ago. His personality and kindness and warmth had such a positive effect on me and all of us who were playing Bridge at the Village at East Farms. I was a horrible player, yet Brian always made me feel differently. He even brought a Bridge CD Tutorial for me to borrow and download.
I knew nothing of his illustrious background, but he made an impression on me that will live on forever.
Imagine that---how softly powerful was his presence in my life for only 5 days!
I wish you his family my sincerest sympathy.

To Brian's Family,

I was saddened to hear of Brian's passing and my thoughts are with you. I knew him through the Friends of the Whittemore Library where his work on our Board of Directors was greatly appreciated. Brian was a very giving person always willing to help out wherever he could including serving as the president. His presence will be sorely missed but his contributions will not be forgotten..

Val and family, my condolences to you all. Brian fought a long battle and I know he will be truly missed by you all. My heart breaks for you all and will keep you in my prayers.
