Yes, the link is here:

Scroll down about halfway: "Remembering Lt. Brian Smith"

It was a very positive piece.  There was a nice quote from his mother about 
how making Brian's garb became a family activity.  His father hunted deer 
and tanned the hides, and his mother did the sewing.

May his family and friends be comforted by his memory.
