Happy Birthday Brian. I hope you have a wonderful time in heaven. We miss you very much and think about you a lot. You are always in our hearts. Love, Levi & Sean
It’s obvious from Brian’s smile, laughter and strength that he was Heaven sent. Now, free of pain, he is able to watch over us from on high. Though he is now a prayer away instead of a text, he won’t be forgotten. We’ll try to follow his example of making the world a happier place and find a way to smile for him, until we meet again. In loving friendship, The Family of AJ Kostecka

To Ridwan & Natali, no words can express our deepest condolences for your loss. May God comfort you and know that we’re here for you. Brian, you have touched so many hearts with your faith, and positive outlook on life. You have shown us your resilience when the going gets tough. It breaks our hearts to see you go at such a young age. On the other hand, we’re glad that you’re home with our eternal Father where there is no suffering. In the short amount of time that God gave you on earth, you have been such a blessing for those who know you. And that’s what counts. We love you Brian. Good bye now… Till we meet again… Hari, Erni, Nathaniel, Krisalyn, Tobias

RIP my little Brian. You will never be forgotten. Ennio and Marie-Noele Filosi (parents of Emmanuel Filosi)
There are so many things that we don’t understand, we can only trust His heart. Veri and Zoie said that koko Brian will meet Hachi in heaven because he likes dog and Hachi is so sweet. God will call Hachi to accompany koko Brian and they will play together… We are privileged to know Brian in the short amount of time and experience his strong faith in Jesus. Ridwan and Natali, thank you sharing him with us. We miss Brian and will continue to pray for your family. Our deepest condolences for your loss. Hari, Joana, Verity, and Zoie Rediawan
Our deepest condolences for the passing of beloved Brian Tan, we’ll remember you as a precious child with kind spirit & strong faith. May you rest in peace in Jesus’ loving arms.
It is not easy for us to say good-bye to Brian. In school, He was the first one to turn in his homework and projects. He always worked hard for everything, even when he was undergoing treatment at Washington Hospital. From his iPhone, his mother discovered that he was recording the New York trip even when he was in the ICU. He did not give up when it became hard for him to breathe. He suffered through so much pain, yet he did not complain. To him, God was taking care of everything. Now, he is in God’s hands and his suffering is over. He left us with his legacy. As friends, classmates, and anyone else who he touched, we shall go forward with him in our hearts and remember him as the hard-working, dedicated, loving individual that he was in his life.
