I went to Medic School with Brian....His loss is shocking to say the least. I called him "Lance Armstrong" (to his mild annoiance), but that summed up his physical condition and resolve. As a brother firefighter/mountaineer, I celebrate his passion for living life and I am happy to have known him. Brian will be missed.
