Love that you used his “Jimmy Dean” picture. Reminds me of the character he was. Won’t be able to be there in person to celebrate Brian’s life with you but you’ll all be in my heart and prayers.

We were sad to learn of my cousin Brian's illness and passing. Our condolences go out to all family and friends. In Brian's honor we are making a donation to the Wounded Warrior Project, a cause we think he would have supported.
