Please check back often, as we hope friends and family will share there thoughts, prayers and comforting words.
Our thoughts and prayers are with all the family and friends...Brian was a really great guy and will be missed but not forgotten.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed getting to know Brian during our daughters' soccer events. I was impressed with positive attitude and easy going nature. An obvious family man and great husband. We will keep him and his family in our prayers.

The Bussey family......our hearts are yours and we hold you in our highest prayers. We sure miss Emmons street. We so enjoyed our time as neighbors. The days spent playing in the park, or in your basement on the indoor park Brian created for the kids, the cook outs and not to mention the great drinks! Brian is such an amazing person his spirit will live on. If I were carrying in groceries and Brian just got off work he would run accross the street to help, he always made you feel like it would all just work out, he was a content happy man. I remember the night before I left for Haiti (as we were packing supplies to bring to the orphanage where are children were) I heard some rustling outside, when I went to check what it was; I found a huge bag of formula and peanut butter left on my porch with a note that said good luck! and noticed Brian slipping back inside the house. He loved his kids so much, he always talked of his skiing adventures and dates with Alli, so proud to be her daddy. Dora, Jackson, Alli we are thinking of you and wish we could give you a hug! All our hearts, The Oswalds
ReplyDeleteBrian...even though I only had a chance to meet you a couple of times, you were such a sweet, humble, down to earth family man. You were so kind and had such a great personality. I know just how much you loved your wife (my cousin Dora), and your children. This world lost a great, wonderful, caring man. We will all miss you Brian.
ReplyDeleteWith Love Always,
Your cousin (in-law)

Our family's thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Bussey family and all those he touched. While I only worked with Brian for a short period of time, he still touched me with his caring and thoughtfulness . . . and of course his great sense of humor.

I want to offer our sincere and deep condolences to the Bussey family. I liked Brian the moment I met him. He was intelligent, decent, and open -- a rare combination. I immediately felt comfortable going to him for advice and he always provided wise and quiet counsel. This is such a loss for the whole community.

Most sincere and heartfelt condolences to Brian's family and friends. I have very fond memories of sushi dinners and fun conversations at work. We have all lost a shining example of true friendship and an excellent mentor. May his example live on in our memories and conduct.
ReplyDeleteI have not seen Brian in 20 years, but he always made us laugh and was there to help anyone that needed. I remember him skiing and just having a great time. He loved life. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers. You will be missed.
ReplyDeleteDear Doro,
ReplyDeleteEver since I received the message of Brian’s sudden death I have to think about how unfair life is. You and your family have been treated with what must be unbearable hardship.
Just a few weeks ago I met you and your kids the first time and was impressed by the happiness and harmony I could sense amongst your family. Brian was clearly proud of you and your kids. I am sure that you will continue to make him proud as you will stand strong and carry Brian’s and your legacy forward by raising your beautiful kids.
I worked with Brian since more than10 years ago. He started his offshore assignment in Germany where you joined him for one year. His enthusiasm and positive attitude during all these years was inspiring and admirable. He was always the one who reached out and kept in touch.
I wish you all the necessary strength to endure and overcome this hardship. My thoughts and deep sympathy are with you, your family and friends.
Christian
My deepest of condolences to Dora. You have been in my thoughts and prayers since I have heard the news. Brian was a wonderful mentor to me during my time at Pricewaterhouse. I have so many fond memories of our time spent together in Germany. Please know you and your children are in my thoughts during this time with constant prayers.

Dora, Ally and Jackson,
ReplyDeleteWe are so very sorry for your loss.
Please know you are loved by many and are being prayed for during this difficult time. Brian was here on Earth for such a short time but your memories and his impact will last a lifetime.

To Brian’s family and friends:
ReplyDeleteMy heartfelt condolences to you. May God give you the strength to bear this terrible loss. I have sent many prayers already.
Dear Brian,
I knew you for just a short period of time, but I have been reflecting on our few interactions since Monday. You never failed to ask about my daughter every time we talked, ... you figured out what was important to me and were caring enough (despite all the busy project schedules) to ask about her. I am sorry I never told you I appreciated it very much. May you rest in peace. We will miss you!
--Jay
Dear Dora, Alexandra and Jackson,
ReplyDeleteIt’s hard to come to grips with Brian’s passing. He was an amazing husband, father, and friend to all. We’ll always remember how much he adored his family and really relished the time he spent with you all. Please know we are keeping you in our daily thoughts and prayers, and are here for you!
~Mike, Alissa, Ella and Ava
Dora - I was so sorry to hear of Brian's sudden passing. My heart goes out to you, Alexandra and Jackson. Please know you all are in my thoughts and prayers. May God bless you, and watch over you during this very difficult time. My deepest sympathy, Carin
ReplyDeleteI knew Brian when we were young growing up on The Lake. He was quiet, gentle and kind. Even though we have lost touch, hearing about his death made me sad. Sad that he was taken from his family and sad that he was taken so young. My thoughts go out to his wife and children.
