Relation: Went to high school with Brian
I went to high school with Brian. I remember when I would see him in the hallways between classes he always had a bright smile on his face. I moved away from Kimberley in 1988 and the last time I saw him was at grad. My deepest condolences to his family and friends.

Our condolences on the loss of Brian. We met him at prenatal classes – 1997 – I always enjoyed chatting with him and catching up at the ski hill after we moved to SK. We remember his warm smile and kind demeanor.

Relation: Brother
There are still few days that I am able to accept your loss. You were and will always be my brother, however it’s always been much more. You remain my mentor, my confidant, my friend and my direction. Brian you gave more then you were given always. It’s a debt I wish I could repay. I love you every day and I know heaven shone a bit brighter the day you left here to there. I’ll take as much time and procrastinate as best I’m able…. till we meet again.
