Brian graduated from Miramichi Valley High School in 2000 and received his degree from Mount Allison University in 2006. He was employed as a marketing distributor for Karic Sales Ltd. Red Bull in Dartmouth, NS. Brian's life was much too short but his years were truly blessed in many ways. Brian's ability to make friends began at a very early age. He was a caring and loving person who felt compelled to look after those less fortunate, or who needed a smiling face and a helping hand. His legion of friends, both male and female began in pre-school as toddlers. His charm and witty remarks were uplifting to his family and friends. As a young boy, Brian enjoyed hockey and baseball was a avid Red Sox fan, along with Dad and sister "Joc". Many phone calls were made to celebrate the Red Sox success or to input solutions as to their latest slump. It was at Mount Allison that Brian began to discover his true passions; music writing and film making. He believed he needed to create some expression of himself if he were to contribute. His short stories, essays, and a short film entry into the Sackville Film Festival was a beginning legacy. Visitation was at Davidson's Funeral Home, May 26th - 27th.
