Brian was a 1979 graduate of Amsterdam High School. He played a valued role in his family business until moving to Florida in 1999. He was so fortunate to find another “work family” for the past 20 years as Manager of Water Operations for the Town of Gulfstream, FL. The relationships that Brian built here were evident with the support shared over the past 4 years of his illness.
Brian married the love of his life, Jennifer Kosinski, on September 27, 1986. Their marriage would grow to conquer any and all challenges that confronted them over the past 33 years. The love shared between Brian, Jen, and Erik are what encouraged him to keep pushing through his courageous battle with cancer.
Brian was successful in all aspects of life, but, his most meaningful achievements are measured by the relationships and love that came so naturally for him. His sense of humor will be remembered for all who were fortunate enough to know him. The world was truly a better place with Brian in it.
Calling hours will be held on Monday, January 6, 2020 at Scobee-Combs-Bowden Funeral Home. 599 NE 15th Ave. Boynton Beach, FL 33435 from 5 pm – 7 pm. Memorial contributions may be made to the American Cancer Society or the charity of one’s choice.
