Brian only worked for me a short while as a heavy equipment mechanic. He was a good man and employee. So sorry for your loss.

A good one gone too soon. Brian would give you the shirt off his back and never mention a word about it. I´m so sorry Kayla and LB and family, I hope you find some comfort during this time. Yall have some big shoes to fill. I will miss that big laugh and late night chats about random nothings usually. Wishing the family peace and healing through this time. Rest easy B.
