Brien was born i n Harbor Springs, Mich., on May 4, 1988. He came to Big Bear Lake in 2003 to attend Big Bear High School and live with his Aunt Sue Battiste. Brien was a big part of the Captain's Anchorage family. Brien graduated from Big Bear High in 2006. Brien received a full scholarship to Harvard, which we were all so proud of and moved to Boston to pursue his studies in economics. Brien was a huge inspiration to all and will be dearly missed. A memorial will be held for Brien on Sunday, Aug. 1, at 1 p.m. upstairs at Captain's Anchorage. Donations can be made at Union Bank to benefit the music department at Big Bear High School in honor of Brien's love for music.
