My deepest sympathy to the family, one day soon we will reap the benefits of Jesus sacrificial death and resurrection –Romans 5:8; Psalms 83:18. Jesus promised, all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out –John 5:28, 29; Psalms 37:11. Doris

Hey brother. Hard to believe you are not with us. My only comfort is knowing you can be with Kelsey. I find peace in knowing you will teach her some of you quick whit!! By the time I get to heaven you will both keep me laughing for eternity. I will miss you brother... The holidays just won't be the same, neither will camp. I know how much you loved it there. I will forever see you in the reflection of the ocean and treasure the conversations we've shared. Forever my big brother, forever your lil bro! Cole Lindberg

I will miss you friend. I still laugh every time I think of the chicken dance, the Hey Song and the Great Cornholio. I still remember the night you, Michelle and I went four wheeling in Forestville in the Jeep. Mustang Sally never meant anything to me until I saw you belt it out at Flannagin's on karaoke night. Missing you.... Greg

Dear Chris, Dick and family, I am praying for your peace and comfort...."from the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have recieved from God.For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows." (Il Cor. 1:3-5). "The last enemy to be destroyed is death." (lCor. 14:26) May He wipe every tear from your eyes. Joyce Kronemeyer

Your entire family will be in my prayers. Grant Patient

Barb and Family, I remember Brian when he worked at the Corner Store in Big Bay and the many times he came to one of our bon-fires. He made Duane and I laugh so much. He was a wonderful man, and I know he is bringing lots of laughs and smiles to all those in heaven. Mary Fish

I personally did not know Brian myself, but my father (Geno Valente sometimes known as Stuart Valente) played in the Westerly Winds Big Band with Brian and was very fond of Brian as my memory recalls. He mentioned him often and tried to keep in touch until he got very ill. My dad passed in January of 2006 from cancer. I wish your families much peace and love from my family. Renee Valente

I raise my Mountain Dew to you Brian! (yes i finally converted) I'm sitting here singing some Hey Song, Smoke on the Water and a little China Grove and the memories keep flowing. You were such a strong person and a complete inspiration! To all of your family and friends I pray for peace and comfort. Thank you for sharing your life... and your struggles with us all. That was truly a gift. I will miss you... see you on the flipside! Brandy Holder (Bumstead)
