A Legacy of Service
Brian’s impact on The Boys’ Brigade spanned over 70 years, during which he served with distinction as State President, State Secretary, and Executive Officer. Beyond his executive leadership, he was a Company Captain and Chaplain who shaped the character and faith of generations of young men across Western Australia. His lifetime of dedication to youth and the community was officially recognized in 2011 when he was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM). Brian’s life was a testament to the values of the Brigade, and he will be remembered as a mentor and friend to many.
