Missing you. The pain gets less but never goes away. Thinking of you today as always. They say time heals but it just doesn't seem possible to realize your gone. Pain is pain, whether large or small. There is a scar on my heart forever. Love you to infinity. Mom xoxoxoxo

Two years have passed since you left and this year has been difficult. You used to help me with my depressions and your not here. Don't know what to do and can't face many things. Isolated and alone and forever holding you in my heart. I love you, miss you and cherish the memories of you even though it still hurts. I love you son. xoxoxoxo

Merry Christmas Brian. Still missing you and always thinking about you. Memories are funny things, mostly they are funny, happy and just wonderful. On holidays they help us to remember our times with loved ones, they also break our hearts all over again. I prefer to to remember all my angels as good memories, the hard memories help me to remember how much I love you and you loved me. xo

On Mother's Day today, I am looking at the Mother's Day Card you made me when you were in kindergarten. It still makes me smile and every year I bring it out and display it proudly. Even at five years old you had talent. The poem is precious to me. Missing you soooo much today and always. Some days just bring on too many memories. I love you my son. xoxoxoxo

Hey Brian, This is great thing your mom is doing to keep the memories going, and you know we have a lot of them from back in the day, Lately I have been regretting that the only way I get to reminisce about the good is when something bad has happened. I just so wish we could get together with all the homies just one more time. But, I guess we will in time. RIP Brother

Part II -You were with Jesse and me the whole day. It was one of happiest days of 2011. When I'm with Jesse, I'm with you all over again. Jesse is one unique person. You'd be so proud of him. So, now on the last day of this year. I wish you a Happy New Year of Eternal Peace my Son. My heart is breaking still, but just knowing you are free and happy is all I can ask. I love you Bri

Part I - Well, Brian, finally this awful year has ended. Losing you this year was the most devistating thing that could have ever happen to me. It still seems impossible to believe. I pulled through Christmas by keeping busy but you were on my mind through it all, hiding tears form everyone. I had a increditable day with your son Jesse. That day felt like you were sitting next to me..

Thanksgiving was a quiet time and for some reason even tho we didn't always celebrate together with you and your family, I missed you so much. I remember when Janet made a turkey for me when I was visiting you guys and it wasn't even a holiday and she said you guys wanted to have thanksgiving for me. I remembered that yesterday and I longed to see you again. I love you always Mom

Last week Uncle Sam came to be with you and on the same day that we spread his ashes, one of your good friends passed (Dylan Capwell). Dylan was only 33 one year younger then when you left us. I hope you are all embracing one another and may you all RIP Love you all.

Bri was an amazing person who embraced his North American Indian heritage. He was a life partner to Janet and loving father to his seven children and a friend to all. He went to be with the Great Creator at only 34 years of age. Miss you so much. LOL

Do you know how much I miss you? My heart and soul aches for you every breath I take. You've been gone so long and the years are flying by but you are with me every waking moment. I'll never get over your leaving and cherish the time spent with you. Do I have regrets? Of course I do, but not enough to over- shadow the good memories we had. You were never easy but you will forever be my son, no matter what. I am reminded of you in things I see and hear and I know when you are with me, and I always acknowledge your presence. Know that I love you more than anybody realizes and always will. No one or no thing can take that away from us. Forever, Love, Your MUM xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

My forever loving son, I will be with you in spirit this holiday season as always. It's never been the same on any special occasion without you around.

I thinking of you and missing you always. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and all of our angels. Mum xoxoxoxox

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SON. Twelve years is too long to be without you, yet it seems only yesterday that I last saw you. Can't bear the memories, especially when I see pictures of your son Jesse, Haley and their baby girl. You would adore you granddaughter and be very proud of Jesse. You are still playing your tricks on me occasionally but I know it's you saying hi. Too bad you can't go out West with us I'd love to take you to all the Reservations out there. Take care of yourself and all our other Angels. Love you and know you are always with me. Mum

Birthday's past
July 24, 2013
by Tina Dorris
Today on your 37th birthday I am remembering your past birthday's. Parties, people and you.
I was trying to think about all the different birthday cakes you had. E.T., Darth Vadar, R2D2, a guitar, Superman etc.
The many phases of, Star Wars, He-man, Spiderman, Superman. ( Remember the Superman quilt I made you?), WWF wrestlers, matchbox cars etc. (You and Jamie playing for hours in the basement playroom.)
Chucky Cheese party in Hamilton. Laura, Denise, Jamie, Michael, Christa.
Those were the great, happy times. Wish we could of had more, but I won't forget the ones we did have. Love you beyond the outer limits. Mum xoxoxoxo
Proud and loving Father
October 12, 2012
by Tina Dorris
As time went on Brign became a father. First came Jesse. Oh how proud Brian was of his first born. One thing I have to say is that Brian was a good father. He truly loved all of his children. He couldn't provide finanically for them but he loved them so much. Second came Brynn, third Aurora, fourth Emmaoreta and then Jonny Shy. He very much loved Janet's two boys as well, Chris and Phoenix, he thought of them as his children too. He told me several times that he deeply cared for each and every one of them. Brian had many disappointments during his short life, but he never reqretted the kids. Through his depressions and unhapppy times his children were what kept him going. He always wanted the best for all of them. I know he wanted them to succed in life and have a better one than he had. He wanted only happiness and love and the best of everything for them. I want them all to know, no matter what anyone says, he gave you the only thing that he could and that was his love.

Just wanted to convey this message I got from Ryan Herfert on my email.
April 16 Ryan Herfert
Hi Tina. I don't facebook much so I just got your message, thank you for the birthday blessing. 36 time flies, sometimes I look back and it seems like just yesterday we were hell raising kids in the trailer park, playing in the creek. I don't know if you know this but Brian taught all of us how to clime a small tree high enough until it bent completely over far enough to cross the widest parts of the creek. The first time I saw him do it I thought her was the creepiest dude
April 16 Ryan Herfert
Sorry damh auto correct. any way what I was trying to say was Brain was one crazy guy but I always admired his free spirt. It's times like that that I will never forget.
