Bryan and I were classmates from first grade at Riverside through Youree Drive and Captain Shreve. He was very smart, talented and wickedly funny. I was sorry to hear of his passing.

I also knew Bryan from elementary school through CS and played in the orchestra with him. He was so talented and the epitomy of a nice guy. I feel sad.
