Comment: Brian suffered a massive heart attack and passed away on November 1st, 2020 in Henderson, Nevada. He had previously suffered a heart attack in August of the same year and was recovering from that episode. Brian was returned to his birth place (Hawaii) for burial by his sister. Brian was not only my classmate from grade school through high school but also with me in Vietnam. I was with the Warlords B Co.123rd Aviation BN. Also at Chu Lai during the same time period. I know that he is flying with the angels now and he will be missed; that I know for sure.
