Memorial website in the memory of your loved one

With fond memories we remember our loved one, Brian McCarthy.  Brian was born in New York on January 3, 1943 and left us on January 19, 2005 at the age of 62.  His generous heart and cheerful outlook brought many smiles to us during the time that we spent with him.  His caring personality, love for life and his laugh will stay with us forever.  Those of us who were fortunate enough to know Brian take comfort in knowing that the memories will always be with us, that the pain will eventually begin to lessen, and that he will always have a special place in our hearts.

Services were held on Friday, January 28, 2005 at Swan Law Funeral Home.
Also, 15C - a favorite club of Brian's - hosted many who came to eat, drink and celebrate Brian's life.  Thank you all for attending and honoring his memory.

On July 12th, 2005 at High Noon, on a beautifully bright and cloudless Summer's day, Brian took his last flight over Peak 8 in Breckenridge, Colorado with his dear friend Rick Stark. Per Brian's wishes, a portion of his ashes were spread over "God's Country" and his favorite place on earth.
