So sad, he will be missed by so many people, a very strong tenacious man who had such a strong will to survive. Such a character, one of the old school and had a great sense of humour. Loved his tipple. I will never forget him. Love Isobel

I will never forget how Brian and Jacquie welcomed me with so much love into their home as I was an exchange student. Brian will be greatly missed. What a wonderful role model and host Dad! I am forever grateful on the impact Brian had in my life. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

Amazing tenacious man whom I admired enormously, he gave any one in health care a shakeup including the leaders with his problem solving skill. He will be missed

So very sad to hear of Brian's passing. He will be missed by us all at Benny's Again. Brian was a regular for many years and such a character we have grown to love. Will certainly be having a Merlot in his memory.

To Nigel and Genevieve. So sorry to see Brian's passing. He made the most of life. He was a character that was larger than life and will be sadly missed. You'll have some great memories from the times you all spent together as a family - going through Europe in a campervan comes to mind. Our heartfelt sympathy.
