Story
Brian was one of life’s “Good Guys”
His morals, values and integrity were reflected in his love of the world and all of its’ inhabitants.
A devoted father, his proudest achievements, were his son, Craig and daughter Debbie, who Brian described as “ Decent Citizens”, but that’s what happens when you have a Dad like Brian.
Brian was a humble man who knew what was important to him, and it didn’t involve any commercial consumerism.
Brian was an adventurous photographer and prolific writer, with poetry being his main passion in his creative armoury.
He touched the lives of many, in a positive way and still had so much to share.
We intend to establish a memorial, details of which have still to be confirmed, and ask that friends, family and acquaintances support us by making a donation to this page.
Any decisions will be based on honouring Brian’s memory in a way that will benefit others, and will be posted here.

Brian would have been delighted to be helping other writers – as he did so often in his life.
