Brian,
You were a great Scout, soccer player, and Gael Force team member. I remember how you would use your sense of humor at Camp Wanocksett to teach me how to ward off bears and mosquitoes. I remember playing center half-back with you when you almost blew me over with the force of your kick from the 50 yard line. Legend has it, you once scored a goal from this position. You were one of the cool kids at FIRST who always took the time to show others kindness and make them feel included. My condolences, love, and prayers are with the Tierney family at this time. Brian will be missed.
