Diane and family: Thank you for your post about my mom. All of you have my sympathy on Brian's passing. It is so sad to hear about another member of our family no longer with us.

I’m so very sorry to hear of Brian’s passing. He had a remarkably great sense of humor. He will be deeply missed..,

Family of Brian,  So sorry for your loss. My name is Patricia Hennis Hansen. Brian’s father was my uncle and my Dad Leighton was his uncle. We lived on the highway and Uncle Arnold west of us on the gravel road. When the school bus came to Uncle Arnold’s house I ran down the driveway to just in time to get on the bus. I was a student at Abbott Hospital School of Nursing in Minneapolis class of 1968. I walked to Northwestern to visit Uncle Arnold shortly before died in the Madelia Hospital. I married Steve 1968 and we had two children a boy Joel and a girl Jody.  I worked 45 years as an R.N in many areas of nursing. We are retired now on Lake Ada near Pine River, Mn., on hour north of Brainerd.
