You lived a life that touched many people in a very positive way and you will be remembered as such. You have also left behind incredible memories that have the power to inspire others to accomplish whatever it may be they set out to do. You had the ability to bring out the best in people and make them achieve more than I think even they knew was possible and best of all you enjoyed their success with them. You are an incredible individual and though words can't express my loss, it is not about me - I will try to pass on the values I saw in you to others and share what you were able to bring to so many. Though you will be missed - you will never be forgotten.

Bret, thank you for being a coach to Christian. You showed him that hard work pays off and that it bonds a team. Your passing is way too soon and my heart aches for your children and family.
I only found out yesterday that my brother in law Aaron played with you at Connor.
Rest in peace my friend.
