Of the many many wonderful memories I have of Brian, one stands out among my favorite of the McCarthy daycamp years when I worked with Brian. Every year at the beginning of camp, he would so seriously stand up and tell the campers the rules. With an absolutely straight face no matter how silly and hilarious they were being. he would later tell us the counselors don´t smile until August. Which, if you know, Brian, that was a total head. There´s nothing Brian loved more than laughing with the kids and enjoying his counselors. He was the best man I´ve ever known.

I love you, Mr. Rogan. You were the best principle any of us could have asked for to have at the Kennedy school. You will be sincerely missed by the staff, students, and parents. It is a shame that this has happened and we will all keep you in our hearts and memories. God bless.

Brian was a young teenager when he started working at a City operated Summer Camp for Special Needs Campers. When Brian was only 18, his sister Maureen, the highly respected former Director of the camp, recommended her younger brother Brian to be named as her replacement Director. My understandable reservations was pitted against Maureen's doubtless confidence in Brian. He was hired. What transpired for the next forty years was nothing but magical for the children, parents, and staff that attended and worked at Framingham's McCarthy Camp.

So many are appreciative of your selfless efforts. So many will miss you.

Brian was hands down one of the best people I have ever meet. So incredibly kind, soft spoken, and infectiously happy. He was the best boss I have ever worked for and taught me so much about not judging people for their bad days or mistakes. Thank you, sir, for giving me my first job and making my summers something to look forward too.

Brian was the very best of men- the most wonderfully decent person I have had the honor of knowing. Brian brought light and hope to everyone fortunate enough to be touched by his beautiful soul. May he rest in peace.
