Sorry to say, I didn't know Brian all that well due to our living continents apart, but I can say that the several times we met, Brian was always smiling, always open and friendly and easy to talk to. Brian was a real man; I could see he adored Val and was always eager to do things with her and for her. For that and your tremendous love of life and family, you will be eternally remembered and loved. Sleep and be at peace - you ran your race well. Our deepest sympathy Val and family.
