Rest In Peace. You will be missed. My uncle randomly passed away from a "simple" brain tumor. This is like someone's twisting the knife in the wound. Never really healed.

This is such sad and terrible news. This Mac forum will not be the same without him. My condolences to his family and anyone who knew him. I hope he rests in peace.

I didn't know Bryan very well since I am new to this forum. But I can tell that he was very well liked and respected by many, many people on this forum as evidenced by these posts.

I want to give my condolences to his family and rest in the fact that he is in Gods hands now.

God Bless you Bryan!

Regards,

PatM

Omg! I have been so busy with work that I missed this thread..

And although I have only been a member for one year I understood how important Schweb is/was to this community..

My regrets go out to his family and the members here that knew him on a more personal level

I audibly gasped when I read this. Bryan's approach to life was incredibly well-founded, and he was one of the handful of people I only became more thoroughly impressed by and grew to like better after each interaction. I wish his family all the strength they need to get through this.

I didn't have the opportunity to talk to Schweb, he seem like a very straight-up and genuine guy. My condolences to his family and close friends.

I'm clearly quite late to the news, but I wanted to pass on my appreciation for Schweb, everything he did for the board, and his patience with posters when they would inevitably put their foot in their mouths -- as I and others have certainly done.

Terrible news. He will be much missed here. My condolences to his family.

Only just seen this. Terribly sad news.

Clearly the man behind what I've always found to be the most welcoming and helpful community on the web.

My condolences to the family.
