It read: Just over a year ago our dear friend, Brian Turk, was diagnosed with cancer.

"Being the selfless and private person that he is, Brian kept this quiet so as not to concern his family and friends.

Unfortunately, the cancer has now become terminal.

"Brian has impacted so many of us in a positive way whether it be on the football field, at Mater Dei or USC, on stage or in our personal lives. He has always been there for us in our times of need and celebration."
