"In memory of Brian"

My name is Steve Crevier, I shared a barracks room with Brian while we were both stationed at Ft Richardson in Alaska. We were both in HHC 501st Airborne at the time. I'm sorry to hear of what happened to your son. I can only define him as what is best in all men. He loved his job, his friends and was one of the few people that you could truly count on do his best under any circumstance. Once again, I'm sorry and your family will be in my prayers."

My last couple of years in Alaska wouldn't have been quite the same without you sharing in our fun...our boat (silly thing barely worked!), eating cat food on a dare, posing shyly for pictures with us girls, and your visit to our home in Montana with your father :-) Brian, you made the world a better place...thank you for you :-)"
