Jackie, Bush Nichols called and wanted you all to know how sorry he is
He sure will be missed
I haven\’t seen Brian in many years. He, along with Felix Pages, were bigger than life people in my life from Sunnyside pool. Felix and Brian were the last of a truly unique breed of lifeguards that none of us that followed were able to match. It was a privilege for me to be a part of a great staff that Dick Horn put together at Sunnyside and Brian was a definite center piece. I loved it. I will echo his obituary by saying that Brian was an awesome person. Thanks, Brian, for the memories.
Throughout grade school and high school my brother and I witnessed his infectious personality, caring disposition, and overall love of life. His friendship was special to both of us. He was a great teammate. A true Admiral doing his part to make the team better on both the football field and basketball court. On occasion we even witnessed his life saving skills during the fun time while working together at Sunnyside. One can only imagine what Brian and Kenny are up to now. Thank you Jackie and Darrell for all you did for our friend. Steve Lovell

Joyce and I alway have good memories partying when Morgan Jim Morley and Gordon lived together. Brian was always happy I don’t think he ever had a bad. Day. When he moved back to Danville I’m sorry I didn’t get to see much of him. He will be remembered and missed by all who knew him.

Outstanding guy.
I met Brian many years ago when he refinished a bath tub for us. He was such a kind person and made sure the job was done very well. He was a person that you felt like you knew the first time you met him. Prayers for his friends and family.
Joyce and I are so sorry about this. We had great times when Morgem, Brian Jim Gordon lived together many lies told. We always enjoyed seeing Brian. Such a great guy. We will miss him
There are so many things I thought about saying, but when I saw John Keith\’s message I felt like it was perfect from my perspective as well. Rest easy my friend.
Sending thoughts and prayers to the family. I will miss my friend O’Malley. Thank you for decades of friendship, and for all the good memories we share. -Tom, and the Byerly Family.
Hi Ben, I really appreciate the formulas you have provided. I am interested in generating data about #hashtags beyond Instagram. I tried changing the formula for other socials (facebook, twitter, linkedIn) but it provided the ‘NA’ response. Any tips?Thanks.
