    I'm my eyes, Bryan won. He's free from the pain & he lived, experienced and accomplished more than many of us dream. His legacy won't just be The Reptarium and the LegaSea Aquarium but the love and knowledge he shared with an entire community. Rest easy Bryan, the Reptile Army will always remember you & stand behind Lori, Noah, Jade and your crew💚

    He really was a great friend. He helped me through some rough surgeries. Would video chat me weekly and walk around the zoo for 10min to keep my spirits up.
    He let me help with the reptarium 2.0 build. Would always let me in for free and wander around as I please. I bought animals from him... traveled with him. I'm in some videos of his, met amazing people because of him. He truly was an AMAZING human and an even more amazing friend.
    I love you Brian. Rest easy.

As a cancer survivor myself, I was following his journey and I really really was hoping for the outcome to be different. Tough loosing good loving people. Much love to his family. ❤ 🐍 🐢 ❤️

    I don’t think I’ve ever been so upset about the death of someone I never actually met in person. I really feel like I knew Brian, though, and he was such an inspiration to me. He was incredibly kind, generous and open and honest with people. I watched him daily for years. He was a visionary, and the hardest-working person I ever saw. My sympathies to his wife, Lori, and his son, Noah. I hope everyone continues to support his channel, The Reptarium, and the Legasea Aquarium.

    I thought I had no more tears to cry after watching the videos yesterday. I knew he only had a few days after his goodbye video, but I still prayed, more for pain relief than anything at that point. I live in Iowa, so we aren't as far away as I thought. I learned to not "hate" snakes as much as I used to thanks to Brian and a few others. I'm happy that he is no longer living with pain, but it still sucks when good people get cancer. Pancreatic is one of the hardest cancers to cure, but you have to have hope. My sympathy goes out to Brian's family, close friends, far away friends, and everyone who knew Brian who like me, learned to enjoy reptiles.

    I watched Brian a lot. I'm from the UK and I don't keep reptiles. I have learned so much about reptiles (mostly snakes) and I don't even come into contact with them. I feared them. I now understand a lot more about their behaviors. You know what it is good to be aware what is around, when you when you visit other countries. Brian was a lovely guy, who chatted very open and honest to us. He will be missed widely. A very special person who you just cannot help but shed tears for. Brian has left his Aquarium in good hands. Lori and the team will continue Brian's legacy for sure. RIP Sir Brian.

      My experience with Brian sounds so familiar to yours and I agree with everything you said about him. I love animals and retired recently. Didn’t want to have cats or dogs to keep up with daily and watching Brian made me want a reptile so bad. I’m in my 50’s and bought a bearded dragon, which cracked up all of my grown children 😆. My grandsons live next to me and we all love this unique pet so much. Last night I was letting him cuddle on me and thought about Brian and how I wouldn’t even have my beardie if it weren’t for Brian’s videos. I swear from watching Brian all these years, the knowledge you obtain about reptiles makes you feel like you have a degree hahaha

    Since my granddaughter was just a year old (she's almost 8 now), we spent our Sunday mornings in bed catching up with Brian's weekly adventures. We never had the privilege of meeting this incredible person, but our plan was to make a grandma/granddaughter trip to Michigan once Legasea opened, to finally meet Brian. My granddaughter's plan was to purchase her "dream snake" to take home with us. To have our own Brian Legacy snake, to teach her the importance of one of God's creations. This is her first experience with death and she is devasted by his passing. I'm not sure if she totally understands it, but does know she won't see Brian again and that, I think, breaks her heart (and mine). I don't know what our plans are still about the visit to Legasea Aquarium, but we want Lori and EVERYONE to know that we are thinking about them and sending our hugs and prayers at this sad time. Brian, you are so missed by this little girl, but know you are no longer in pain and watching over all of your family and animals. Until we see you again!

    May God give his beautiful Family, Friends and all his loved ones some peace and bless them in this terrible time. Man It’s just heartbreaking to hear of his passing. Snake Bytes was literally the first Channel I subscribed to and Brian and his Family and Friends/ Coworkers were just so much fun to watch them with the Animals they love, but he is with the Angels teaching them all about Reptiles in Heaven. RIP Brian 😢 You will forever hold a place in all of our hearts and We all will never forget You Man!

    I am so sad because I wanted to meet him one day and be taught all he knows about animals. Maybe even work for him.
    Rest easy Brian, you are an absolute legend.🖤

    His life was shortened by cancer that he stayed strong fighting it like a champ. He was loved around the world with his knowledge of animals to loving them. Even teaching others not to be afraid of an animal they won’t hurt you. You will never be forgotten in this world your Legacy will live on through everyone you had touched. 🙏🙏 prayers to the family members losing a great man in their lives.

    I never personally watched him, but I have been in the reptile internet circle for awhile, and I can feel how heavy this loss is. It’s okay to grieve, even if you never met him and only ever watched him. We can only hope he’s resting easy, and that his family will find peace.

      Take the time and watch some of his inspiring video's. He did lots of educational videos. I watch a few reptile people on TH-cam, Brian is one. They are like a huge family. He will be missed by many.
