Brian and I worked together at the Star-Gazette, and that was my first time being around someone that wasn’t a boss, but instead, a leader and a mentor. He shared his knowledge, and provided a space to learn. It has been years since we worked together, but we frequently messaged and sent each other funny holiday cards. No one has a better laugh than Brian. I’m a better person for knowing him, and the world is a better place having him in it. Going to miss you, B-Man. Your friend forever, E.K.

He was a truly good person who treated everyone around him as important people. The Elmira Star Gazette was fortunate to have him all those years.
Brian was a real mensch. A person of unimpeachable decency. A role model for those lucky enough to work with him.

Brian was a student of mine at EFA in the mid-70's. I remember him as a fine young man and an excellent student. And what an outstanding career he had as a journalist ! My sincere condolences are with all of Brian's family.

I had the incredible fortune of working with Brian at Corning Incorporated where he engaged as a freelance writer. He was such a pleasure to work with and always added such a creative spin to our news publications. Moreover, such a lovely and talented gentleman with a good heart and always a smile in his voice. Rest in beautiful eternal peace, dear Brian. Thank you for everything. It was a true pleasure.

Brian and I worked together for about 25 years at the Star-Gazette during an era when the newsroom was like family. We had similar dispositions and many conversations "solving" the troubles of the world, the Star-Gazette and its parent, Gannett. Brian had a kind, soft and empathetic manner - a good soul - and I saw his tutelage help many co-workers develop as journalists and people. I was blessed to know him and amazed at how he outwardly expressed a positive outlook through all his travails.

Brian and I were friends at Elmira College. As fellow English majors, we took many courses together and enjoyed time together in and out of the classroom. I have very fond memories of hanging out with him. He was a great conversationalist and had a kind soul. Rest in peace my friend.

I was fortunate enough to have been a classmate and graduated with Brian from Elmira Free Academy in 1977. I too joined the Star-Gazette as a senior in high school and our friendship continued on for many years thereafter as fellow co-workers. What a wonderful time we had working at the paper. We were like family and the memories we made I will cherish forever. Fly high with the Angels my friend.
