We had the pleasure of working at Eglin Air Force Base with Brian in the early 1990's. Brian was loving, hilarious, and forgiving of others. He was one of my favorite friends. He told us he became a social worker/therapist because of us. We became better people because of him. We love you BKL. And we will see you again

25 years ago when I was a little girl I had the privilege of having Brian as a step dad. He was so much fun and a sweet and generous person. I hope he has found my mom again in heaven. Rest in Peace.

You were so kind to me during the short time that we crossed paths when I rotated through Fish as a nursing student--thank you for teaching me, and for making me feel like I was a useful part of the treatment team. People like you remind us why we are in healthcare. Rest in peace, friend.

Brian wasnt just a social worker, or a great conversationalist,or one of the biggest Seminole fans that ever walked the earth. He was a caring, funny, light-hearted gentleman that always greeted you with the most unique of greetings and introductions. His ability to make lemonade from lemons was impeccable and incredible. As a nurse, I will miss him, as a fellow human being, I will remember him.

My deepest sympathy to the family of Brian Lord. He was truly an extraordinary and thoughtful human being. He worked tirelessly for the welfare of others and always went the extra step. Without a doubt, Brian will be missed for the sunshine and smiles he continuously gave to others. I pray for his peace and easy transition through to his next journey.

Brian was the kind of person that made you want to be a better person. He had a way of brightening up any situation with his hearty laugh and sunny personality. Every morning he would say "It's a beautiful day at Fish Memorial!" Brian and I developed a unique friendship when we discovered each of us had a parent living at OCNR. We made a pact to visit (check on) the other parent whenever we were there. It gave me a sense of peace knowing someone else was watching out for dad and I enjoyed visiting with his mother, Kathryn as well. Brian and I also enjoyed a good old fashioned Florida rivalry.....Gators vs Seminoles. This picture was taken after last year's game. Losing our annual bet....he wore these gator buttons the entire day! I am so thankful I had the opportunity to know him. He was one of those people that leaves footprints on your heart. Brian you will be truly missed and I will always remember your big heart and incredible spirit.

Brian always answered the phone saying "it's a beautiful day at fish memorial" and when you saw him face to face he would greet me and say it's the lovely Debbie from Woodland Terrace. Brian you will be missed. But Monday it was a beautiful day in heaven !!!!

Thank you for everything and more importantly for being my friend and making people smile and truly touching everyones heart.
