Since his discharge from the Navy in 1979, Brian has fought many battles in his life and was always thankful for the consistent friendship, comfort, and continuity of care he received through Agape of Appleton and Francis "Stack" Heesakker; their support has been invaluable to his family. The staff of Symphony Place at Brewster Village will always have the lasting thanks of his family for all of the care and services they provided for Brian while he lived there.
