“He was an avid and highly accomplished sailor, winning many local optimist and 420 sailing regattas. He represented the Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School (RFH) sailing team that went to the High School Nationals in Austin, Texas. Brian loved cross country running, his coaches and teammates, many with whom he remained friendly. Brian’s other passion was skiing with his family, his cousins and his uncle’s ski posse. He was a fierce hard-charging skier who loved speed, the bumps, the trees and really any terrain a mountain offered. Finally, Brian loved his Kappa Sigma brothers at Lehigh University. Brian loved his family and was a role model to his younger brothers and was
closely connected to his 10 first cousins.”
