  21. What I wouldn’t give for a night at Partners, a big hug and a warm smile saying “Miss Manning!!!”

    Brian- you put up with and encouraged all of our antics and shenanigans. You were the life of every party and a friend to everyone you met.

    I will miss you so much!

  29. Beth: I am stunned and cannot sleep…I ask God “why?” as I am sure you have many times in the last few days. I will never forget the joy Brian had in the birth of four great kids…thanks for letting me enjoy the journey with you and Brian. Please remind the kids of how I cherished having such a devoted dad along for the journey. I know anything I say now will not lesson the pain, but I often turn to the wisdom of St. Augustine when I cannot make sense of the madness: “….rather than seek to understand in order to believe, BELIEVE in order to understand…” I remain a friend, support…if you need me.

Deepest condolences to Beth, the kids and the entire family.

  37. I worked with Brian on a major project at Edward Jones a few years ago and stayed in touch since then. We enjoyed talking about vacations and the local STL food scene. I was so shocked to hear of his way too young passing. My deepest condolences to Brian’s family.

  47. My thoughts and prayers to the family of Brian. So sorry for your loss. I will be praying for the family often. Brian worked at the building where I am a desk security officer. He was always the nicest guy to me. He would bring the kids up to work sometimes and they are so wonderful. Thank you so much to the church for doing a livestream of his service today since I could not make it Friday. Sometimes like in Brian’s case and sadly, people do not live to be elderly. We are not promised tomorrow on this Earth but each day is a gift. If you have not already done so I encourage you to make your peace with God without delay.
