    Do keep in mind that no one gets out alive, no one. We all get to see the Lord at some tome in our existence. People like to think that life is forever and it's not, and when it's your turn, you have little choice. Everyone (I believe) wants to pass peacefully but that isn't always the case and won't be in my case, I already know that. I'm fully prepared and at peace with the inevitable, but I'll still do everything in my power to extend my time here.

    Sorry to hear about Brian. Although we never met him, I enjoyed the thread on the kitties he found, nurtured and found a good home for two of them with bogieb

    Prayers of comfort for his wife and family.

    Administrative should we start a pool to donate to CF (what obituary requested) in Brian’s name from FHC? To include a card to his wife; Andrea.

    Very sad news; my condolences. He lived a very rich life based on the write up. I’m sure he had a positive impact on many.

    Sad to read of his passing.

    Always liked his info on the IS.

    RIP Brian, and may his family find comfort.

    Peace and love to his family. I read much on his experience on the of his IS. Believe he had the beta type. Good hearing his analysis...and the knowledge is here to be read by future FHC'ers. What a wonderful archive we have with those we have had here and the privilege to read their stories.

    So sad to hear this. Rest in Peace BDF. I recall talking with you online about many things here on FHC, You'll be missed. That was a great Obituary. It reminded me of a quote my wife has been saying recently. " You only die once, but you live every day. Make the most of each day"

    I think it is great someone took the time to write such a nice obituary for him. Obviously he was loved much and will be missed.

    Condolences to Brian and his family.
