In loving memory of Brian C. Welsh, Sr. who was called into the arms of the Lord on Saturday, August 7,

Brian was a gentle soul who was loved, respected, and looked up to by all who had the pleasure of
knowing him. Brian had many friends and would light up the room with his boisterous laugh and easy
