Condolences
Prayers sorry for your loss
Brett,
I am so saddened to hear of Brian's Passing. I spoke with him last year in September and he let me know he had gotten cancer but was on road to recovery (Unless he was just hopeful) I have tried to call him a few times since and I have left Voicemails on his home phone, which still today still works.. I am devistated to hear of this. Brian was such a great guy and friend to me. I had employed him at Froggy Radio back in 2016-2017. He was a pleasure to work with. I had told him in September that there MIGHT be an opportunity for him to come work with me again in Radio and he was excited. I finally had a position for him and reached out today. Then I googled to find this... :( So sad!! Please accept my deepest condolences. Brian always spoke so highly of you. I have a picture of him and I at an event at Fairmont State. He loved selling Radio Ads!
Brett,
Sandy and I want to express our sincere condolences. We know the pain of loss that you are experiencing, even though you realize Brian’s suffering on earth has ended. May the Lord bring you His Peace and Comfort.
