Brian was such a sweet young man. I met Brian when he was a student in the DSP&S Department at College of the Canyons, and I was one of his tutors in the department. He made such a difference in the lives of the people he came in contact with because he always had a positive attitude. He will be sorely missed.
With my sincere condolences,
Marsha Shumer

Brian always had a warm smile and a hug for my family.
He would have something funny to say or a teasing comment
Such as my daughters and I looked like sisters, (We do not).

He shared some of the reasons why after his accident he came back to church. His story made it very real to many people. I know he had faith and was saved.

He will be missed at Bethlehem Lutheran very much.

MY prayers are with his family. I am sure this sweet person will be missed by his family as well.
