Condolence: Denise So sad to learn of Brian's passing. He was a good and honest colleague in the TCS and he had a successful career which you and your extended family can be very proud of. His passing will leave a big hole in your heart and Diane and I hope you remain strong and come through this OK

Condolence: I am very saddened by the news of Brian's passing and wish to send to Denise and her family my most sincere condolences. Although we never served abroad together nor in the same sector I very much appreciated the occasions when I did work with Brian and respected very much the high quality, professional commitment and good humor he brought to his profession on behalf of Canada.

Condolence: Dear Denise, Helen and I were very sorry to hear of Brian’s passing . We both remember him for his zest for life, breaking out in his “bad-boy” smile, and just generally making everyone feel good. He certainly lightened many a meeting we had during our German postings. Please accept our deepest condolences. Garrett and Helen

Condolence: June and I are greatly saddened by Brian's death. Before we left Ottawa in October for our six month sojourn in Mexico, we visited with Brian at the Montfort Hospital and could see he was unwell; still we held out hope for a full recovery. We have known and loved Brian for a very long time, more than 50 years, during Ottawa assignments and abroad when we were both posted to Brazil. He was indeed an outstanding person - full of common good sense, possessing a wry and wicked sense of humour, loving of friends and colleagues and devoted to his wife and family. Although his lofty career achievements were many and varied, we think of him more as a fellow Canadian Government trade commissioner who was dedicated to the success of Canadian exporters and to Canada as an exporting nation. Brian was a very special guy, and we will miss him.
