My condolences to all of Bryans family, Bryan was a great person, I have the fondest of memories, riding motorcycles to California in 1977, flying airplanes, hanging out in Venice Beach with his German girlfriend Suzanne, these were great times and memories that I will cherish forever. I will miss Bryan deeply.

Mark Hicks, my brother Rob and I were just talking about Bryan days before we heard about his passing at the funeral for another Sacred Heart alumn., Jimmy Howard. I hadn't seen Bryan for many years, but I remember him as a great guy, have many fond memories of camping together with the Boy Scouts. I'm saddened to know he's gone. My prayers are with him and you surviving family members.
