Debbie Jimmy, April, Cody and the entire family, Brian was always so sweet and a special friend! My heart is broken! The only words are God is with you all! I love you so very much….
From the Fox family,
We know Brian was full of life and was the most friendly person everytime we got to see him. We have so many good memories of spending time with him. From all the fish fryes on Dennis cove, to watching Tennessee football games on Saturdays, and catching an idiot trying to steal his walker at a sports bar. He always had a good time with whatever we did, and never complained about any of his health issues. He was always more interested in what we was doing and concerned that everyone else was doing ok. This is how Brian was and we loved him for how big of a heart he had, and just being a great person. We will miss him very much, and our hearts go out to the family during this tough time.
God bless the Mathes family!
Nick and I only knew Brian for a very short time but he was a guy that we felt like we knew him forever. He always had special smile for Nick and I. We never heard him complain. I know his family and friends will miss him and so will we. Love to family. Nick Fox and Jane
Brian faced many struggles but was a strong person and put his faith in God. Many prayers for his family. Karen Crowe
Brian was the very very best. He never complained. We surely loved him and will miss him always!
