Brian, You have always been my special love since I first heard you sing Were You There When They Crucified My Lord on a Good Friday service. I loved your mom and the more I got to know you the more I loved you. It was not because I loved Margie so much either. You were a special guy that could make my heart dance every time you sang or just smiled. We will meet again and I hope I walk thru those hate to your beautiful voice. Love you and Margie I love you am I am just a few blocks away.

It has been an extreme honor to be on the Praise Team with Brian and worship our Lord with him the passed few years. I will cherish our rehearsal memories forever. He was a light, and a joy, and brought such laughter to our team. I will miss him dearly.

We know that the music in Heaven just got sweeter! We loved Brian for so many reasons...his incredible talent, his humor and laughter, his kindness, his devotion and love for Margie, Keith and Lauren and on and on. We are sad but know that he is healed and waiting for all of us on the other side. Margie, we love you and are here for you, dear friend. May you be comforted by the love of friends and family and by the strength of God's love, mercy and grace..

Margie, Brian was a special person with the wonderful gifts of music and humor that he shared with us all.. I really enjoyed all the times playing in the band with him. He was not shy about expressing his feelings-he was the only friend that ended most conversations with me with a "love you man!" I'll miss him.
