Your aunt, Patricia Ellis, wrote the below message to you on your Facebook message board. I thought it was one of the most beautiful messages ever written about you. It spoke truth, was pure from her heart, it was private to you alone, she wasn't seeking praise or acknowledgement. I asked her if I could share on your status, so others could see this beautiful post. She said I could.

"John 9:1-3. As Jesus went along, he saw a man blind from birth. His disciples asked him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind? … "Neither this man nor his parents sinned, said Jesus, but this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life."
Brian, this is how I think of YOU. You were born 'special' for God's glory and we (and the 6 organ recipients) experienced Gods blessings through you. THANK YOU

I have read and heard these scriptures sermonized many times, and I never saw them as she did in you. So I thank her, because they tell the truth of you the blessing you were; how we all saw the wonder of GOD at work in you. Your purity, your unconditional love, the joy you gave us, the lives you continue to touch in death. The blessing we received from GOD when you came into our lives.
I miss you my son, each day, every moment, I ache to hold you and see you smile and hear you laugh and to kiss you and hug you; and hear the constant chatter of your voice... I miss you and until we meet again an emptiness will remain in me, a piece of my heart removed and scarred over. … Thank you, Trish for remembering my Bri and sending such a beautiful message to him.
