Brian,I hadn't seen you in a few years since we worked together...but I remember your willingness to work hard with a smile and the way we always joked and clowned around. I wish I had seen you more recently or had known about the service in time...I would have been there for sure my man. As it is...I'll remember you and the good times we had at work and I'm glad I got to share a few of those with you before you moved on. Far too soon. Until we meet again.-Riley

Dear sweet Brian,You are forever held in my memory as a chubby-cheeked 10-year old who'd write poems and stories for me at Grandma and Grandpa's. You're sweet spirit always lifted all of us. You are far too young to leave us and will be, are, so dearly missed.Peace to you, my cousin.

I feel blessed to have know Brian, he was always there with a kiss on the check and a hug no matter what. He had his hand out to help anyone in need. He changed so many lives by being so kind and compassionate. It was an honor and pleasure to be his friend. Brian fought a battle that was to strong to win for him, he tried and tried that I did get to see. He will be missed by so many. I love you Brian and find comfort that you are resting in the hands of the Lord. To his family I am so very, very sorry for your lose. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Please remember him fondly and lovingly, as he was. His mother's son, kind and compassionate no matter what, he was her boy, a twinkle in her eye, he had a way about him, a sweetness, an innocents his mother always saw, and fought so hard to keep preserving. Brian fought a battle too hard to win, and I admired his dedication for trying. God has blessed us by knowing him, and I am grateful. for he is secure in the arms of his ancestors, and we should rejoice in that.

Brian was a true friend and I am a better person for having known him. He would give you the shirt off his back and smile while doing so. I will miss him from the bottom of my heart.

Although I have many memories of Brian - the most meaningful were from the years our friendship started...middle school. These years were the most awkward time for me. Brian always had a way of bringing a smile to my face even if when all else failed he would crack some silly joke about himself to show me that I wasn't the only 'awkward' kid around. We were never close/best friends but he showed himself to a kind, true soul often and that I will alway remember about him. Brian you will be missed by many.My thoughts and prayers will be with your friends and family.

The world is a little poorer since yesterday. Since Brian was a baby he brought a sense of joy and happiness to all who interacted with him. As a toddler he was quick to make those around him laugh and face it, he was so darn cute! His friendly demeanor was truly infectious and I always enjoyed whatever time I could spend with him. Even as he battled his issues, in his heart he wanted to help others, to be involved. Brian is now at peace and in the welcoming and loving arms of Helen and Jay, his grandparents who loved him so much. He touched all of those who will read this in his own unique way. We'll all miss you Brian.And to my sister Sue, be strong. Brian would want no less of you!

Brian was a good friend in high school. We spent many mornings in the hall chatting before school. Unfortunately I have only seen him a few times since we graduated but when we did see eachother, it was always a fun and rewarding eperience. The Burr family offers our deepest condolences to the Cushnyr family.
