You could have the most fun and silly times with Brian, and at the same time he was the person you could call in your darkest hour. His emotions ran deep. The sensitivity that he had for others sometimes made it difficult for him to deal with the extraordinary amount of sadness that can creep into our lives. Brian fought the tough battle of addiction and like too many before him became a casualty of this disease. But Brian's life was so much more than this.
Brian was an Eagle Scout, Troop 108, Hazardville, CT; He loved racquetball, playing tenor sax, fishing, camping, the beach, practicing Jiu Jitsu and above all music made his world go round, attending as many concerts and festivals as he could. Brian was always sharing a song, telling you to check out a band or concert, or sending you song lyrics to brighten your day. He was incredibly funny. His luminous smile and bigger than life personality would fill an entire room. Being around him, you always felt like you were loved and you had a best friend. Even if you only spent a short time with him, you felt like you knew him your whole life. Now let's celebrate his....
