Dear Gary and Family,

I was shocked and saddened to hear of Brian's untimely passing. It was always a bonus when he would join you on the BLKnight/SquireG show. I will miss his quick wit and cheeriness. May the memories of years past comfort you in the hard days ahead.

Gary,

I am so sorry to hear of Brian's passing. I was lucky enough to meet him in person last January. He made such an impression on me with his friendliness, openness and wonderful sense of humor. When I look at the pictures of that night in Chicago, I can't help but smile. God's blessings on him and his family.

Gary and family,



I am stricken with a sense of shock and overwhelmed with sadness to hear of Brian's untimely passing.



Memories of Brian with my own beloved on stage years ago makes my heart ache to see them both again. Until then, I will look at the sky and smile knowing I played a small part in the life of the latest star to illuminate the sky north of Houston.



May god's love comfort you all at this difficult time in your life.

Dear Brian's Family,

Brian sang and played music at my wedding. He was also "Elvis" at the reception, generously giving his energy and talent to create a happy memory I will always cherish.

He was a star and the world is just a little less bright now.

My heart goes out to you all and I am so sorry for your loss.

My deepest sympathy,
