My name is Douglas Murray; I worked with Brian at SCI later known as WestRock for 10 years…I was shocked in learning of Brian’s passing. Judy Stempski you have my sympathy for your loss and I send my condolences to your family.
I’ll share a story. Occasionally I would sit or help at the editor while Brian could get away for a few minute. I enjoyed listening to some of his stories and his work on Airstream Trailer that he acquired along with rebuilding small engines (lawn mowers & snowblowers)
Brian visited me & Colleen a couple of times bringing his dogs. One visit from our 2nd floor window in the kitchen I pointed to a very large tree that was above our upper bedroom.I said here’s a challenge Brian; take down the tree and I will give you a 6 piece bedroom suite. Wouldn’t you know it, Brian showed up a couple of weeks later with 2 chainsaws and looking up at that tree he remarked “that is a big tree, 3 stories plus high)….When all was done we had a full backyard of cut up tree.
Ten years ago I was the first to have ever retired at WestRock and Brian is one I will always remember.
May you Rest in Peace Brian. Your friend; Doug

Thank you so much, Douglas, for your loving and kind words. Brian was always happiest at helping his friends and family. It was lovely to meet you at Brian’s Celebration of Life and reception. Thank you for attending, your presence and everyone who attended meant the world to me!
Take care and God Bless
