Memories of Brian go back to his employment at Food Lion - so very helpful for all the Elderly customers. I have just said "Good-bye see you later to my 38 yr. daughter, Michelle London-Stone, Monday, Dec. 3. We recently saw him & his sweet family @ Pizza Hut (Eden). She remarked how cute & sweet his children were. Little did we know they would enter Heavens Pearly Gates 9 days apart. We've Got More to go to Heaven for than we had yesterday. Praying GOD'S Love & Strength will be with YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY !

To Brian's family I am so sorry for your loss. Brian was a great guy and was so proud of his family. Your loss will be Brian's eternal gain. That is a comfort all on it's own. Brian gave me a piece of advice before I left 951 and that was if you can make something better do it. He made all of the people's lives better that he touched. Just think of the high school kids that he helped through his years at Food Lion. He was a giver and I believe that that comes from the lord and is a blessing. May the lords grace comfort you all.

I met Brian when he was working at the Eden Food Lion and became quite fond of him. This was during his dating days but I met his wife once they were married. His death saddens me and even more so because it is Christmastime. My sympathies go out to all his family and friends.

I've worked with Brian at 1192 as his assistant for the past year and a half. I feel like I've lost my right hand but there's no comparison to the pain Elizabeth, his children, and both families are feeling right now. Brian was such a sweet soul and had such a way with words. He could make you smile even when you didn't want to. He taught me so much more than I could have dreamed and I thank God for sending him to my life for just that. The most important life lesson Brian taught me was about self-worth. He's impacted so many people's lives and life will never be the same for the people he has touched. My deepest sympathy goes out to you all. Elizabeth, please reach out if you need anything at all. With love -
Ashley Hopper

Kevin Meeks
I can not convey the profound sadness I felt when I read of Brian's passing this morning. What a wonderful person! He graduated with one of my son's. We struck up a friendship when he worked at Food Lion here in Eden. I'd always give him a birthday card. He always wanted to know how all my children were doing. Always had such nice things to say about my son who graudated with him. I was so dissapointed when he went to the store in Riedsville. I lost contact with him. The world has lost a magnificant young man. peace, ann
