Dear Maureen and family. We were so sorry to hear of your loss. Its been a long time since Croughton but we have very fond memories of you both. Unfortunately, living in Oregon we will be unable to attend the services. Bryon will be missed my many.
As Commander of Post 1799 I wanted to state on behalf of our post that Brion was the driving force in getting our post started and thriving. There would be no post without the hard work and dedication of Brion and we will be forever grateful to him. We shall cherish his memory.
Believe not because some old manuscripts are produced, Believe not because it is your national belief, Believe not because you have been made to, Believe from your childhood,but reason truth out, And after you have analyzed it, if you find it will do good to one and all, Believe it, live up to it, and help others live up to it. Buddha Brion lived this verse of Buddha that meant much to him. He was special to all who knew him, family and friends alike. His passing leaves a great void for all of us. We will have his clocks, trains, cars, and pictures to remind us of him, but most of all, we have our wonderful memories of him. Here’s thinking about you, Brion, until we meet again! Juliette
We wish we could be with you right now. Uncle Brion holds such a special place in our hearts. I remember being so excited when you would come for visits when I was little. My own children have similar memories and we will all cherish those memories of our Uncle Brion.
Brion, I’m grateful to have known you. I cherish that honor. Your with the stars and the grains of sand now. I’ll miss you always. Thank you for everything.
I will miss Brion so very much. We were kindred spirits which started when I was four. Brion, the cutest baby ever, was born and I loved him from that moment on. He was a very loving, and caring brother. A year ago I was invited to come visit Brion and Maureen for a week. It was one of my most treasued vacations as Brion and I had so much alone time and talked for hours about our childhood, life in general and all the hobbies we had. Brion lost his favorite brother, Gordy, when he was only 11, which has been a loss for him over the years. Well, Brion, RING THOSE BELLS, you are now reunited with your buddy, Gordy.
