Long time friendship with Brian, was in a business partnership fo 5 years, he was alway pleased to see anyone and as teenagers we have a lot of memories. His Mum and Dad were such nice people too. Sorry can't make it to his final farewell, but will have long lasting memories of him over many years, he loved his cars.
