Not sure what to say?

Greg & Susan - We just learned of Bret's passing and although we did not know him, nontheless we are saddened for you. We know he is now in a better place. Warm wishes and love go out to you.

Dear Julie, Greg, Don, Annie told me the sad but long-expected news, and so from far away after 20 years I send my regrets. Wish we had gotten to CA last June, not just to the SE, then we wed in July, here. Do get in touch, or come visit.
Comforting hugs, Carol and Jyrki

I am saddened by the news of Bret's passing, Bret was a breath of fresh air. Bret had an amazing energy about him, and I will cherish the memories I have from junior high and high school band classes. Marching Band, Symphonic Band and Mixed Ensemble would have never been the same without him. Rest in peace, your friend Tony Adan.

I do not know what to say. Our thoughts are with you at this time.

Dear Greg and Julie,
I had no idea of the tragedy that
had befallen Brett. I am so sorry
for him and for you and your families.
Sincerely,
Diane Adan

Greg,
I was saddened to read of Bret's death. On the other hand it is certainly for the best. That was not a way to live. I will always remember the Sneetch as a really great kid.

Dear Julie & Don and Susan & Greg,

We were sad to read about Bret's passing after all these years in a coma. We had always hoped, as you did, that some day he might have come out of it and been able to rebuild his life. We have fond memories of the times we spent with Greg, Julie and Bret during the first few years that we lived here, remembering Bret as the talented and energetic young man that he was during his high school years.

Bill was especially...

I am so sorry we lost contact Bret. I will cherish the memories I have of us jamming together in our very first rock band with Joel Krueger on bass. God bless you my friend,Bruce.
