Following in his father's footsteps, Brian began his working career with the
Hudson's Bay Company. He later earned
Red Seal Journeyman Pipefitter status and joined the U.A. Local 179. He
referred to the brotherhood as his “second family”. Brian enjoyed fishing, barbecuing, playing
pool, NHL hockey (Toronto Maple Leafs), CFL Football (Saskatchewan Roughriders),
Blues music, attending family & friend celebrations, and dancing. Brian was
a great mentor with his wisdom and understanding. He had a warm sense of humour
and was quick to forgive. Brian was a hard worker and a devoted family man who
loved the Lord. He was a man of strong character, excellence and
grace. He held his community of Cumberland House in high esteem. Even
though he ad to leave for employment, Brian always was happy to return to his
island home. He has left us with special memories to cherish until we meet
again.
