I had the good fortune to be the senior manager of the 1976-77 Notre Dame hockey team. Brian was a team captain and while I stood several inches higher than him, it was I who looked up as he was a force larger than life. It was not just his athletic prowess, it was also his fiery spirit which burnt brighter than his red hair. For me, a quiet and unathletic Midwestern young man, Brian was the vision of quintessential Bostonian, forged in the state which was the cradle of the American Revolution.
Brian never let me touch his skates. He only let the ice rink manager sharpen them, not me. He was not wrong.
Please accept my heartfelt condolences to the Walsh family at your loss. May he rest in peace.
