Bailey, Aiden and Rylee- Words can never express the heaviness of my heart for you. The lose of a parent is painful, but especially hard for you being so young. Your Dad was a wonderful guy. I remember his sharp wit and how he always made me feel welcomed. May your hearts be every filled with the wonderful memories of your times together and celebrate his life. He loved you all. You were his greatest joy!

To say goodbye to Brian is to say goodbye to one of my most favorite people. To work with Brian was to work with a brother. His great humor and enthusiasm will certainly be missed.

To the family of Brian D. Irish. May the love of family and friends comfort you. Blessed are they that mourned: for they shall be comforted.

I am grateful Brian raised some pretty awesome kids. Our sons have been great friends since elementary, perhaps best friends. I enjoy the fantastic sense of humor and a simple grounded-ness (not sure any other way to say that) his son has, which I figured was from his father. And it seemed Brian enjoyed my son the same, which feels great to a parent. I think he was a gentleman, I didn't know him much perhaps, but his loss is felt tremendously in our household.

He was my dad... he was very funny, and nice... especially when he let me color his hair green and paint his nail black. :D

This is so terrible! I haven't seen Brian since our 20th high school reunion. But I clearly remember him being a very nice guy. He even allowed me to write a story about his job as a ball boy for the Indiana Pacers and his friendship with Reggie Miller. You will continue to be in my prayers.
