Brian was a true friend to the end. He was always there in the best of times and the worst of times. His character was unparalleled and would always put his friends and family first. He will truly be missed but never forgotten by all who knew him. I love you Babs!

Brian and I worked together for several years at The Pearl in San Diego. We became fast friends as his upbeat attitude and laugh were infectious. As we became closer I just remember how much I smiled when he was around. You really couldn’t stop yourself. I miss him dearly. I even miss the way he would say “terrible” in his Jersey accent. I loved him like family and I cherish the times we had together. Rest in Paradise B. I love you so much.

No words can describe how sad we feel about Brian's passing. We just spoke to him on his birthday and he was so upbeat. We will always remember his captivating smile. You will be in our hearts always. Rest in peace. Love, Uncle Bill, Aunt Annie and cousin Gary McNally

Babish. You were the one to help get me to move across country, and finally live the life I was dreaming of. I will forever be thankful for all of our laughs, honest and hard conversations, camping trips, and burritos. Thank you for inspiring me to stand up for myself and be a better human. You already know how I feel about you. See you on the other side- I will always love you. FidddleSTICKS.

Brian! I am so devastated that you're gone. We had so many memories together. Thank you for always distracting me and keeping me on the phone longer. You were always a voice of reason (eh) and logic and I really did value what advice you did give me over the years. Thanks for being my hiking buddy back in NJ, and always meeting me at the res. Thanks for going on all the adventures with me. Don't thank you for letting me get robbed, but that's okay I guess. You were always the most intuitive dude, how the hell did you know how to read people so well? Going to miss our phone calls, our shirtless Skype sessions, and general ball breaking.
As much as the distance separated us I know that when we spoke it was always like it was before, and that you were a real true friend. You were a special dude. Love you brother.

Thank you, God for the gift of Brien, Our only regret is that you did not allow the ones who loved him to share that gift longer.

I met Brian when I joined HubSpot, he was my team lead. I am grateful for all the patience, guidance he showed me while I was learning. Though beyond that, Brian and I became quick friends as we both loved camping, the outdoors, nature, and overlanding builds. We swapped updates and stories on our vehicle builds and plans, and places we wanted to go. He talked about the desert and where he spent many of his weekends and was always excited to share his finds and treasures from his trips from interesting rocks to remnant bones. We talked about meeting up and camping as my partner and I have never been to California.
Thank you, Brian, for all the laughs and stories and for being an awesome person I was honored to call a friend. You are truly missed.

It's easy to sum up what made Brian such a wonderful co-worker. He was friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, clever, a puzzle solver, and a mentor. It's hard to sum up what made Brian such a wonderful friend. He was someone I could have difficult conversations with. We could speak frankly with one another. I could confide in him, and he in me. We could laugh about the most ridiculous things. All of this is true... and yet it doesn't feel sufficient to really express it. I loved that dude like a brother. I'm going to miss him.

Brian was one of my closest friends at work and I appreciated him so much. Over three years, we became a loyal sanity check for each other when work was hard and shared whatever was going on in our lives. Joey was the third person at work that we were close with and I called them my brothers. I still have our monthly sync on my calendar - we moved into different roles at work and made sure to hold a monthly meeting to catch up. Brian frequently cracked me up with dry humor and was always interested in something new. At one point, it was the band Canned Heat and he was taking a deep dive into all of their music. One of my favorite funny memories is when the parrots would land outside of his apartment in San Diego and squawk loudly for days each year. He was not a morning person and they would wake him up far earlier than he preferred. At times, he would pause during Zoom meetings when it got really loud and stare at the camera with a grimace. We are both photographers so we would talk about that too and he always asked me how my sons were doing. Our last call was August 1st and he told me that he wished people did not worry about so many insignificant things. We had a good talk and I am so grateful for that. He passed away on my birthday and I know I speak for all of his good friends here at work when I say we will miss him so much. I was on the Oregon coast when he passed away and we sat by the ocean and burned sage in his memory. I'm so grateful I had Brian as a friend. I am thinking of all of you closest to him and his beloved family. Peace to you and all my love.

We are absolutely heartbroken like so many others that knew Brian. Brian was a wonderful young man taken from his loving family way too soon. Memories are Forever. Words just don’t cut it.

Heartbroken to hear of Brian’s passing. He was such a special soul. So many of my favorite memories in San Diego involve Brian and Ryker, whether at dog beach in OB, hanging out laughing and playing N64 at his apartment, teaching me about ‘real bagels’ from the East Coast, working hard at Nine-Ten and The Pearl and especially the time he hosted the most fun and delicious Friendsgiving celebration I’ve ever been to. I’m so grateful for the time I got to spend with him and so very sorry to his family and friends for this tragic loss.
