Brian was an athlete in high school and beyond. He enjoyed playing many sports, coaching and refereeing. He was a Hockey Guru, it was truly his favorite sport and he knew every detail, player and stat. Brian was also a history buff and enjoyed learning new things and events.
Later in life, Brian's greatest pride and joy were his grandkids. He acquired the nickname of "Beep Beep" from his oldest grandchild which stuck with everyone. He loved nothing more than spending quality time with them whether it was on vacation, hosting a pool day, watching them play sports, going for long walks, surprising them with donuts, hugs, or his daily face time phone calls to ask them how their day went. Nothing put a bigger smile on his face than getting to spend quality time with them.
