"My heart is so sad and heavy with grief for Brian and his family. the news of his passing rocked me to my core.

I have been getting to know Brian more and more at work ... and what a kind soul, big hearted man with a true presence of love and joy. A gentle conduit and lighthouse of the love of God. He was just a friend to all in his quiet way.

He not once told any of us what he was going through.

I am so honored to have met him, to know him, to be the recipient of his warmth, his kindness, his caring . I will remember him as being one of the kindest people I have ever met.

I know he was loved very much and by many.

I wish for everyone to remember him with such good thoughts and memories too."
