Brett came to Chicago in the winter of 1992 to play a ward boss in Bruce Graham's play "Belmont Avenue Social Club." There was no nicer guy for the other four actors to work with, they being Guy Barile, Bob Breuler, B.J. Jones and myself.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always. I can think back fondly seeing him drive down Ventura Blvd in his little red convertible VW checking out the scene always smiling. They used to call him "Happy Hadley" I don't know that he was always that happy but he did his best to make others happy. He was the very best friend you could ever have and you would be fortunate to have him as such.
