Brian Yamane

Brian Yamane was a regular open-player, winter-leaguer, and summer-leaguer. His fun-loving attitude and sense of humor added so much to the BUDA community. Brian passed away last week, and he will be missed dearly by all who shared the field with him.

A link to his obituary can be found here: http://obits.al.com/birmingham/DeathNotices.asp?Page=Notice&PersonID=108380990










































From the BUDA listserv:

Jay Pigford: Brian was the guy who, on the pull, would run down the field yelling
"FIRE!!" much like William Wallace would have if he had played ultimate. It
definitely brought a smile to my face everytime, no matter how bad we were
getting beaten.....great guy who'll be missed.

Steve Millburg: Brian played summer and winter league the past year or
two. Most recently, he was on Karen Balliet and Will
Marble's purple team this past winter league. He was
a fun, energetic guy. I remember him yelling all the
way down the field on each pull.
