“The first two episodes of the LFO story lost a main character yesterday. Brian ‘Brizz’ Gillis has passed away.”

Fischetti continued, emphasizing “what Brian means to LFO” and continued, “It wouldn’t have happened if it weren’t for his hard work and dedication at LFO in the first two episodes, in the early days of LFO, which you know and (hopefully) love.”

“Rest in the east, brother. The rest is easy.”
