My sincere condolences to Kathy and their family. Upon hearing of Brian’s passing a tearoom sadness came to my eye. Quickly I remembered his impish smile and his sparkling eyes and I smiled. You were a force, my brother! Until we meet again, R.I.P. Brother.

Kathy and family, so sorry to hear this!

Several of the ATO brothers have been sharing stories after we heard this news. One of my favorites is when Brian and sidekick Jake organized Allstar wrestling on a Sunday night in the fraternity living room. They made a ring, dressed up in costumes, and gave themselves ridiculous, sounding names. When one of them was going to jump off a chair(turnbuckle )onto the other one, we had to call stop before they got hurt!
One of a kind! Going to be missed by us all!

Kathy and family and all Engbergs. We were saddened to hear of Brian’s sudden accidental passing. Besides being a young cousin and neighbor in Crosby, we saw Brian as a fellow Bison fan in Frisco. He will be missed by so many.

When Brian and Kathy got engaged she was excited when she said to me "we're going to be related!". My cousin married my classmate because they were made for each other. Prayers for all of Brian's family.

Dear Kathy and family, we are so saddened to hear this news. Our hearts are breaking for your loss. Brian was the life of the party….so many hockey parents gatherings while on road trips that he made us laugh till our sides hurt. And we were still laughing the next day. We would run into him in Belfield on our way to Williston from WF, and into Kathy and Brian at NDSU games. Always fun to see you two and share a smile. Please know we send you our deepest sympathy.

We are at a loss for words to describe the shock of hearing about Brian's passing. Brian was one of my close friends, and our relationship went back decades, in the oilfield, where I first met him. Our prayers and condolences go out to his family and the many other great friends he has made.

They broke the mold when Brian came into this world as he was truly an original. Where ever Brian was everyone knew it as he made sure to at least say hi. I worked with him at Halliburton and he was a great supervisor and fellow employee. One things for sure Brian is still smiling as he looking down on us. Rest in peace and my wife and I express our sincerest condolences to Kathy and the family.

Dear Kathy. I just heard about Brian having passé. I wish that there was some way for me to help bear the load that you and your family carry. I owe you and Brian so much. I can sincerely say that I have never came close to experiencing the sheer joy I felt when we were out showing how the game of golf was to be played. Not only that but just hearing the sound of his voice over the phone would crack me up And he always talked about you. You were the light in his life. My heart aches for you. I promise that I will never let him go. May God be with you always
