MaryEllen, John and family - you know Brian was and always will be the brother I never had. We loved him so and will never forget his adventurous spirit, sense of humor and love of family and friends. He is one of a kind and so glad he was part of my life. It was always better when Brian was around. I, as well everyone who knew him, will miss him very much.
