It is with the deepest sadness we share with you one of our beloved members, Brian Smith has passed. Brian loved Elvis and particularly loved to dance to Jail House Rock.

We will miss him dearly and feel honored and grateful to have so many wonderful memories with him. Please keep his family and friends close to your heart at this time. Rest now, Brian. We love you
