Your laughter brightened our days and your friendship enriched our lives. We’ll miss you dearly but take comfort knowing you’re watching over us. Save a seat for us at the bar in the sky, where we’ll laugh together again someday.
Rest in peace, dear friend.

I pray for the peace of the Abrams family like so many I was devastated to hear this news. Brian was always a calming influence and I enjoyed discussing the topics of film and football with him at work. He will be sorely missed!

I’m so sorry for the loss of Brian, a colleague whose love for and pride in his family and children shone through every interaction beyond immediate work tasks. He approached everything from a starting point of kindness and good spirit. May his family take solace in their memories and hold his love close to their hearts, finding the peace they deserve.

Brian and I had a wonderful Fall 2023 coaching our boys to victory in AYSO soccer games. I enjoyed our practices which were part instruction and part two dads goofying around with the kids. He was the ideal co-coach with a mutual focus on fun and teamwork over talent and victories. I admired his fathering skills always giving Evan encouragement. I was looking forward to a spring of fun, coaching with Brian again. His passing is wake-up call for me to enjoy the time we have, especially with family. I wish I could thank him for this gift.
I extend Brian’s entire family my deepest sympathies.

I’m at a total loss for words. I have had the pleasure of working with Brian for about 14 years or more. What a tragic, tragic loss. Like others have said, he was kind, funny, professional and just an amazing presence. The world will not be the same without him. My deepest sympathies go to his family.
Much Love,
Tom

My heartfelt sympathies to the Abrams family. Brian was always fun to work with, knew his stuff and was always willing to help. I truly enjoyed our non-work conversations which primarily focused on Evan and Ella. The sign on his desk made me laugh every day – it was something like “I’m absolutely sure I have no idea”. I hope he is at peace and still making others laugh. May your faith and your memories of Brian help you through this difficult time and keep you strong as you find your way without him.
