I worked for the Virginia Employment Commission and would go to his office to audit the payroll of his clients. I always found Bryan to be one of the kindest CPA’s in the area. He truly cared about his clients. So sorry for your loss. He will be missed.
Bryan was such a kind and caring man. He was my advisor, and cared very much about me, and my circumstances.
I will always remember him. I offer up prayers for his family.
A kind man, and a good friend to all of Front Royal.
Emmy… love you. My heart is so heavy for you. 💜
I had the privilege of working with Bryan during 2 tax seasons. He was a kind and caring employer. My thoughts are with his family at this sad time.
Bryan was so very generous with his time and expertise over many years. He was a real pleasure to know.
Our family will forever grateful and will miss him very much. Our deepest condolences to his family.
Bryan was the best boss I ever knew. Every night when I said good night, he would reply, “Good night and thanks.” I was always surprised to be thanked for work he was paying me to do.
Bryan was such a great guy. He started as our tax guy but became a very good friend. When we had tax season and all year in between, when we saw each other, we talked about kids and grandkids and of course him yelling at me for not keeping things straight for him on chriss business. Lol.
He truly will be missed and the world lost a good man.
Hugs and prayers to his family. ❤️❤️❤️
