 Brian will always be remembered for his unwavering love for the outdoors. He found true happiness in the midst of the forest, gliding through the waters in his canoe, and fishing with a passion that was unmatched. Brian's connection to nature was profound, and his presence in the wilderness brought peace and joy to all who were fortunate enough to share in his experiences. His legacy serves as a timeless reminder to appreciate the beauty and serenity of the natural world.

With respecting Brian's wishes, cremation has taken place and a celebration of life will be held at a later date. For those wishing, in lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society of the Renfrew County SPCA.
