My profound condolences to the family. I chatted regularly to Brian "Chirper" Gillis on ICQ when I lived in South Africa. I decided to renew our contact now that I reside in Australia only to find that he has passed. I am so sorry.

Brian was always a "down to earth" guy. He had a great concern for the welfare of the employees and the company he was proud to work for. All the best. He will be greatly missed.
