You would think that something that was such a large part of his life both in time (he owned it for a while) and in passion (he seemed to have a huge passion for engines and rebuilding them) would have made it into the obituary, even as a passing mention.
Not necessarily. My best friend who passed away completely unexpectedly in his sleep at the young age of 35, was a highly regarded Police Officer for years, and was so at the time of his passing. He also loved riding Motorcycles. Neither of those facts made it into his Obituary. Instead, his Family mentioned many of his other qualities and interests.
RIP, Brian. Sincerest Condolences to your Family and Friends.
