To the Wirf Family,
My condolences on your loss.
Brian and I were teammates for several years on the Quaboag baseball team and played in the band together. In fact, we were roommates on band trips to Wakefield and Oxford.
Brian always had a smile on his face and was ready with a joke. He'll be missed.

Tomorrows are not promised. The time to love and be loved to embrace and let go, to share and care, to give and receive is today. Each day brings a second chance an opportunity to make right what we have done wrong and forgive those we feel wronged us along the way. Each day brings a second chance to make sure the people we love and need in our life know of and can feel their place. Each day brings a second chace to renew our hope and dreams and make good the promises we've made to ourselves and one another. Brian you will remain forever and ever in my heart.
