January 07, 2017I am heartbroken at this news and share my deepest sympathies and condolences with the Asbury family. Bryan was such a wonderful person and a great friend. He was an absolutely outstanding hockey player, a great teammate, and always had your back in heated ice hockey games. He was just a born leader and so much fun to be with , whether we went to Penguin games together or other school events. I was so thrilled to be able to re-engage with him, after we all went our separate ways after college, when he attended our recent high school reunion a few years ago. To his family, rest assured there are many broken hearts here in Pittsburgh, Mt. Lebanon and across the country where our alumni reside.  Rest well my dear friend, you played the game of life well, and keep those skates sharpened until we meet again....Jamie Cummings
