At one time in my life I considered Brian to be my brother. I thought, cared and worried for him as if he were my brother. If I would have wanted anyone for my brother-in-law, it would have been you. I remember taking trips with him and Kevin to Florida to see his family and to Carey, NC to see friends of him and Kevin's. I remember fondly family dinners with his family and mine and I just loved the way he could talk about anything and was such a good conversationalist. Thank you for spending special Christmases with me and my family. You are always remembered at that time of year. I will never forget the first time I met him: Kevin and I invited him to have to dinner with us at Olive Garden. I could not believe the carbon copy he was of Kevin, but his own man in many ways: so intelligent, so caring, so loving to his family. I hope that you will meet my brother there in Heaven and say hello to him for me. Some day we will all meet again and I look forward to that… You are a dear sweet soul that shall forever be a part of my life and always remembered…

People so seldom say "I love you" and then it is either too late, or love goes. So when we say "I love you", it doesn't mean we know you will never go, only that we wish you did not have too.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family.
