Heartfelt sentiments from Brian’s wife, Vanessa:
Saturday, November 8, 2025
God called my angel on earth home to heaven. My heart is shattered into a million pieces.
My Brian — the love of my life, my best friend — was a blessing from heaven from the very first day we met. He was the most beautiful soul, truly an angel walking among us.
He was an incredible dad to our two children and to Tutti, our sweet dog. Everyone who met him said he looked like a giant teddy bear, and that’s exactly who he was — gentle, kind, and full of love. People were always surprised by what he did for a living because he was such a soft and gentle soul.
Brian would give the shirt off his back to anyone in need. He’d offer his last few dollars without a second thought. He never hesitated to help others — always listening with his whole heart and offering the best advice. Even if your English wasn’t perfect, he made you feel like you spoke beautifully. His patience and kindness touched everyone who crossed his path.
Brian was truly an amazing, inspiring, caring, and loving man. I am so proud to be, and always will be, his wife and best friend. I am endlessly grateful to have met him and to have shared this life with him.
I love you to the moon and back, my sweet Brian — my Beanz.
Until we meet again, my love. ❤️
Love you always.
