It was such a pleasure to interview my old friend, H. J. Brian Horsman. At almost 93 years of age, Brian is not the oldest person that I've interviewed (that was Robert (Bob) Lyon) but this is certainly the longest interview I have done. Even if you think you know Brian very well, I think there will be a few surprises here for you. Brian is somewhat a legend of the Church here in the Geelong Ward anyway. I'm pretty sure he is our oldest attending member. He was a convert back in the 1950's, and later served as one of the early Bishops of the Ward. Brian's wife Mary passed away earlier this year, and as she was going downhill, he cared for her the entire time (with some family assistance) at home. He was determined to fulfil his duty to love and care for her to the end. That's just the type of man he is. I hope you enjoy, and learn, from this interview
