Joyce Scott:

I was a patient of Brian's since 1993 when I moved to Red Deer. His friend and colleague, that died from suicide had operated on me just hours before on the same day. I was some upset when I heard, so I called Brian. He told me to come down to the office, I did, and he spent a good half hour talking to me. I am so sorry to hear of Brian's passing, and I have never forgotten this kind gesture. Also, I attended the funeral, to find out that I knew his Mother & Father in-law. My husband and he had worked for the same company (Alberta Power). I extend my sincere condolences to Linda and the family!

Nancy Mar Hoffos and Lorens Hoffos:

His dedication to creating beautiful works of dentistry, his commitment to perfection and his humor will be missed.

May you find comfort in knowing he's now at peace.

Oh Linda, I'm shocked to read about the passing of Brian, so very sorry for your loss. He was a wonderful man and excellent dentist. He was my first dentist when I moved here years ago and I sure missed him after he retired . My thoughts and prayers go out to you and the kids and your family. He will truly be missed by many. Rest in peace Brian

Glenn & Wendy Moore :

Our sincere sympathies for your loss Linda & Family. We remember Brian?s passion for cycling and sailing, he was an expert in so many ways.... He will be missed.

Joanne Barnes:

Dear Linda, my heartfelt condolences, to you and your family, for your loss. I didn't know Brian well , only having the privilege of travelling with the two of you to Morocco back in 2019. I was struck by his sense of humour and sense of storytelling. That and his disdain for tiny vehicles :) He was a trooper and made sure we all got a more comfortable ride during our trip. His willingness to speak up to right a wrong and make sure that we are all taken care of and comfortable made for a very enjoyable adventure. In your time of pain try to remember the number of times he made you laugh, for one of his obvious joys was in doing just that. Be well my friend and know that I am thinking of you!

Hugs
Joanne

My deepest sympathy to Linda and family. Dr. Brian was a dentist that went above and beyond; he was always just a phone call away if you ran into an emergency. His professional knowledge and expertise changed by life and truly, he gave me a smile. A great person has left this world.

My deepest condolences to the Saby family. Brian was my dentist for a number of years and

Dr. Matthew Danchuk:

I am writing to express my deep sadness upon hearing the news of Dr. Saby?s passing. I knew him professionally for many years via Dental study clubs in Edmonton. He was one of the few whom could ?talk the talk? and ?walk the walk? when it came to his Dental work, expertise and final results. He was the whole package and a professional example to which I continue to aspire to everyday. My sincere condolences to both his immediate and extended family and friends and his professional circle.
So sorry for your loss.

Dear Linda and family,
So saddened to hear of Brian?s passing , I got to know Brian a little at the swimming pool , he really was a great swimmer and I enjoyed hearing about his woodworking projects.

Brian Lambert & Lori Wood:

Our sincerest condolences to the Saby family and especially to Brian's wife. We just read about his passing and were very shocked and saddened to hear of his passing.
Although only met him once, we saw his many talents and craftmanship in creating items for Linda's hobby. Even though he may not have taken part in her hobby, he was there for support as we could all see in his art. Linda often talked fondly of Brian and that's how we all got to know him. Will miss his talents in that respect, and getting to see his next great creation.
Rest in Peace Brian

Beth and David Mathison:
