That was a beautiful service, thank you to you all for making it possible for us to see.
It is with saddened heart that we were not able to be with the family for Brian’s final farewell.
A very much loved Brother and Uncle to Mandy and Katie, and great Uncle to Dylan. There are so many memories we will cherish, even living in different states, it was like we had never left when we went home for Christmases when the girls were young. Brian and Ellen always made us welcome into their home, and yes it was noisy chaos but everyone was so happy and loving.
We will miss you deeply Brian, Rest In Peace, forever in our hearts. Say hello to Mum and Dad and Roger for us . Irene, Mandy, Nick and Dylan, Katie and Rusty xx
Thinking of you and your family today Ellen. May you find comfort in your many family, friends and neighbours at this sad time. Rest in peace Brian.

Ellen Russell Jackie Bindy and Matthew, know that he was appreciated, loved and will be sadly missed
We are blessed to have known Brian. A beautiful man who meant so much, to so many. Our sincere condolences to Ellen, Russell, Jacqui, Bindy, Matthew, their respective partners and the gaggle of beautiful grandchildren, who brought Brian so much joy. So incredibly generous of you all to share him with us. We will think of Brian often, and will never forget him. With all our love Ally & Nate
Brian was a typical Aussie bloke who worked hard in his life to achieve what every man desires in life – a good career, a good woman, a good family and good friends… with these in mind comes the titles in life that Brian earned… a loved brother, Husband, Dad, Uncle, brother-in-law, work mate and to some a friend… and now a time for an extended nap!
Cheers,
Bruce
We are blessed to have known this wonderful man. A man who took on the definition of “Dad” in every way. His dry wit, his wry smile. We are all blessed to have him in our lives. We are grateful that he was able to come to Vermont and enjoy life, grace us with his love of family, love of life and love of Ellen.
Ellen, and all of his children and loved ones. Our hearts are broken. Philip and I wish we could be there to hug you and celebrate his life.
In loving memory of Brian Gossip from the friends of his daughter Jackie Gossip in America at team for kids and friends of Turtle! RIP and our deepest condolences.
From your friends, In the USA
