Uncle Brian was the spitting image of my hero, also his dad, Harold Cole. I have so many great memories of Uncle Brian and Gail. Gail I know you are a strong woman but if you ever need to get away or have a guest over, I'd love to see ya again.  Uncle Brian had such charisma and his hair was always slick! He smelled good and always was dressed ready for the course or the office. I wish I knew him more as an adult but I'll never forget those things about him. Now Grandpa and Uncle Brian can watch over me until we all meet again. Keep in touch Gail and I love you. Brian will always be in my thoughts just as he has been throughout my life. -Daniel Cole

Gail , Charlene and Denny — we are so sorry for your loss.  Brian was always a class act — and a gentleman.  I have fond memories of him visiting many years ago in his naval uniform.   As Denise said, he and Don are together now with the rest of the Dunlaps probably having a time reminiscing.  Sending hugs …and  may he rest in peace — Ron and Gail

Charlene and Gail I am sorry for your loss but now Dad has someone else to get in trouble with in heaven.  It seems like so many of the Dunlap relatives have gone into the gates.  All my love to you and your family    Denise

My prayers are with you Dana and Brian's family as you lay him to rest. May the peace of God be with you all during this time.

Brian was our neighbor, good friend and golf buddy for many years.  We had many enjoyable occasions together.  He will be truly missed!
Love,
Mitch & Opal Zarders

I remember when Brian and Gail had horses in Ramona and rode over to our house. Brian have the kids a chance to ride his horse as they walked around our yard. A nice memory of a nice man.
