Brian and I were LSM operators at the old Brewery St GPO. Brian was a good person. Even later in our passing careers it was enjoyable to exchange conversation on how everything was going. He will be truly missed. My prayers for him and all of his loved ones.
My wife and I were coworkers with Brian. . I also played baseball and ran road races with him back in the day. He was a great guy and a pleasure to have known. We’re sorry for his loss and God bless his family.
A very good man Rest In Peace Brian.🙏
Dear Pat, daughters, siblings,and extended family- My first thought is fairness, and it appears there never is. Saddened to hear of Brian’s passing. There’s not enough great guys in the world. But you had a gem. We shared some common ground. We ran around the same Shore Haven neighborhood. We played on the same fields of Seth G. Haley. We frequented the same avenues, Ocean and Campbell. We both grinded out 40 years in the P.O. And celebrated Yankee wins. We’d jokingly asked each other for twenty bucks when we crossed paths at the Credit Union. My condolences. R. J.
