My wife and I convey our sympathy with Brian's family. I'm one of Brian's former teachers at Eden Elementary and later at MMS. He was always fascinating to talk with and we had a good and friendly rivalry and bet everytime the Lions played the Bears in the NFL. He was a "great Kid" and I'm sure a loving adult. He loved animals and that makes him very special in this Geographer's notebook of memories. Our hearts and prayers and positive wishes are with the Kingen family. Mr. & Mrs. McBride
Bless you all

Our Deepest Sympathy
by: sjuett, 10/07/09
"What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget. "
Our thoughts are with you at this time.
All our love,
Bruce & Susan

I wish I could say something to give you the comfort and strength you will need to get through the chaos you will face in the next few weeks but I know there aren’t any words to prepare you. Be as strong as you can and keep your sense of humor. You will find solace in the memories of all the times you had together but especially the fun and funny ones. Call me if you want to talk or just need to cry. I understand.
