I had the privledge of working with Brian for a while he always joked with me and he was a very caring young man I will miss him and his humor very much he was a very special person
I'm so extremely sorry for your loss. �Words cannot express the sorrow in my heart. I had the opportunity to be blessed to know Brian as one of my dearest friends. � He knew how to make me laugh, even sometimes when I wanted to cry. �His charm and charisma were like no other, and his witty sense of humor was just the icing on the cake for the beautiful person he was inside and out. Heaven will be a brighter and most definitely livelier place with Brian there, just remember there is no pain and there are no tears in Heaven. � You all are in my thoughts and prayers. �
