Needless to say, I add my condolences to you and your family. I will always remember our oft times animated conservations in your living room on my trips to Nain. Brian gave so much to you, Nain and his adopted Inuit people. I remember in particular one discussion we had about small scale greenhouses and increasing the supply of fresh vegetables on the shoulder seasons in the north.<br /><br />Along with I am sure that kew and was touched by him, I offer my sincerest condolences to a wonderful son of first Australia and then the wonderful northern land and people to which he called home.<br /><br />All the very best,<br /><br /><br />Larry FeltLarry Feltnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20438373.post-1093460015102977052013-08-31T11:49:17.919-03:002013-08-31T11:49:17.919-03:00Rev.

Brian was a rare individual who cultivated friends and conversations across the globe. Always insightful and inquisitive. Willing to dare into topics most ignored. Constantly tempting us with his Gastronomic adventures.<br /><br /> I can only hope the family finds some solace in honoring Brian's memory. Reflecting on the unique qualities he brought to everyday life. His sense of humor. His great wit. His great concern for those often in lesser circumstances. Indeed, Nain, Labrador and the world at large will miss him greatly.<br /><br />dannytoro1https://www.blogger.com/profile/01099390174403941587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20438373.post-56866078135034515512013-08-01T10:33:28.137-03:002013-08-01T10:33:28.137-03:00I always enjoyed reading his blogs, although we ne...I always enjoyed reading his blogs, although we never met, I felt as though I knew him and your family.
