A few days before Christmas Questors lost one of its most loyal and well-loved members. Brian had entered the lives of so many of us that it was a great shock to us
all to hear of his sudden collapse and of his death just three weeks later.
Theatre played a large part in his life. Although he only occasionally participated in
plays with The Questors, until a few years ago when the company disbanded he was a regular and very accomplished actor and singer with The Cecilian Players who performed twice yearly in the Questors Theatre. He always directed and produced his
school plays where he was a dedicated and greatly respected teacher.
But to the majority of Questors members it is in the Grapevine bar where he is missed.
There he always had a smile, a friendly outstretched arm and a sympathetic ear for all
his friends and this is the memory we shall carry with us through the years to come.
