  “My most heartfelt condolences. Brian and I grew up together in Burton and attended Oromocto High travelling on the old yellow school bus. We met in frequently after that as our lives took us across Canada. We last visited (briefly) in Fredericton some years ago whn he gave my wife and I a tour of his new home. On each trip home I had hoped to see Brian again. Brian will always be in my thoughts.”
