Dear Brian and family, I write this with the heaviest of hearts. Your passing came way too soon and you will be missed by your family. You were always the wittiest guy in the room and with the Guess clan that's saying a lot. You were such a happy baby and you were the first nephew that I got to spend any amount of time around. We took you to the zoo when you around 2 years old and we had a picnic. You threw the stick for my dog Tracker and laughed wjen he licked your face. We had a nice time and I had a glimpse of what fatherhood would be like someday. I thank you for that memory Brian. And so many more. God bless you and know that we love you. Uncle Vince and Aunt Deb.

I didn't believe I was seeing this when I first read it. My heartfelt sympathies to you and your family on such an early loss. No words can take his place, but I'm sure your family has great memories to help you get by.
