So very sad to learn of Brian's passing, at this time 2 years later.

 We met in an advanced first aid class at IVC in 1975. He made a bet with me that I had an arm sling on the wrong way. That led to a series of fun dates and adventures. He was always one to have a surprise activity planned on the spur of the moment. 

 I married, moved away, and had a family of my own,  but never forgot him.   I can see he had a full and beautiful life, and a family and so many that loved him dearly. And he was so easy to love.  

I just today decided to look up Brian on facebook and see what he was up to.  I met him about 15 years ago, we attempted dating about 3 different times, but something always interrupted. We were just not fated to be together. 

  I met him on a meetup group hike at Daley Ranch in Escondido.  He immediately interested me by asking what CD was in my car right then.  He also charmed me by using a bug on the trail as an excuse to stop and rest.  Such a funny, nice guy.  I remember him telling me about his daughter heading to burning man at the same time my daughter was there.  

I am so sorry to hear that he is gone.  RIP Brian.  And thanks for the hikes, the coffee, the brunches, the lunches, dinners, the parties, the museums, the hiking poles (I still have them) and the motorcycle ride. I was lucky to have some time with you.
