Brian Cashman was a friend, I am deeply saddened to hear this news. Brian exemplified everything that was good about this club, he was truly one of the shining beacons of this organization. I knew Brian for over 15 years, I always looked forward to spending time with him at each yearly convention. His magnetic personality was recognized by all that knew him. He was really a special kind of guy. My sincere condolences go out to Brian's family.
