I had the pleasure of working with Brian for two years at Big Y. He was always so friendly and loved to chat about sports! He always made me smile. Even when I no longer worked there, but shopped at the store for the past two years, he always went out of his way to say hello and find out how I was. Sending deepest condolences to Brian's family - take comfort in the fact that he touched so many lives in a positive way.
