Short, to the point, and the exact reason for Brian's fund

Mr. McCormick:

I wanted to thank you for your generosity. Without people like you, I wouldn’t be able to continue my Xavier education.

Thank you very much.

I'm Engaged!

I'm freshly engaged to my girlfriend of three years, Marion, and I know Brian is looking down and smiling at me right now. Brian and I enjoyed the best and worst of times together in our fifteen year friendship and I truly feel incomplete not being able to share this special experience with him.

I'm without a best friend and a best man for my wedding and I miss him dearly.
