Thank you Stephen for letting us know of your Fathers passing, and please accept my most sincere condolences.
Brian was in many ways like a Father to me and he became one of my best mates. He was a mentor to me and my mate Jimmy, and taught and shared his skills in Roman armoury to us...to which we are forever grateful. Further to that he was simply a good bloke. We corresponded via email several times a week and spent many hours on the phone discussing an array of topics. I had the pleasure of spending a week with him last September in the UK and there is not a day that goes by that I don't think about that week....we had such a tremendous time.
He was an extremely generous man, and was only too willing to help anyone who asked for advice. I loved his sense of humour, and he continually amazed me of his knowledge, not only of Roman history, but overall general knowledge.
I will miss you immensely my good friend.....RIP.
