Brian worked as a child and youth worker graduating from Cambrian College. He then worked for the Yukon Government Youth Correctional Services for over 10 years proudly making differences in the lives of many youths.

Brian loved to laugh and so often brought a smile to everyone’s face. He loved music; he played the piano and mouth organ and enjoyed his weekly jam sessions with his friends. He was an avid Maple Leafs and Blue Jays fan. He also enjoyed many other activities with his family and friends. We are very grateful to his friends for their kindness throughout his illness.

The family will be having a private Celebration Of Life at a later date.
