Our son Beau was one of Brian's good friends. Although we only met Brian a couple of times , we could see the friendship between them was special. We send prayers to heal your hearts.

Brian was like a son to us. I can't tell you how many times I thanked him for taking such good care of our Amy and Kaleb and Derek. The world was truly a better place with him in it. Our hearts are breaking for his family and our daughter who had finally found her soul mate.
