I just saw this and it really hit me. I grew up with Brian in Maitland. He was a hell of a baseball player and an even better person.

RIP Buddy...you'll be missed.

I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Brian, and will pray for his family and friends. He loved baseball, and was such a pleasure to have on my team. I have not seen him since his graduation from WPHS, but I remember him well, and with fond memories. Brian and Johnny Jack once showed up to a game at West Orange HS in the 7th inning. Some how they headed east to West Orange and were totally lost, arriving 3 hours late! Hey both loved to play so I believed their story. Great memories, and a fine young man who I had the pleasure to work with back then. I am so sorry, and can only offer my prayers at this time. Bob King, former Winter Park HS Coach and Teacher

I haven't seen Brian in probably 30 years, since high school, but I was there the day he earned his "Yogi" nickname. I have many wonderful memories from those Maitland Little league and junior high school days. Rest in Peace, Brian.
