We are giving thanks and miss our good neighbor, Brian. Brian, was always helping his neighbors. When my 80 year old aunt needed a car, my mother suggested Brian. He went out of his way to help her and treat her fairly. When Mother was killed by trump's covid and I was stranded for four months in a pandemic, walking hours for groceries, I thought of Brian. He went out of his way to help me and my 80 year old father. Result: I did not have to walk for groceries this winter and could deliver to my father. God sends us angels to meet the needs of His children. James 2:16- He was there for us when we needed help and helped us with what we needed. Our prayers and gratitude are with his family. Our community will miss Brian- there is no greater tribute to the value of a man's life. Prayers for safety for his colleagues with the Dover Fire Department. What greater love than to give up your life for a brother? Thank You all.
