Ken and Kitty,
My sympathy to you and your family on the death of your son, Brett. One of the most difficult things for a parent to go through is the death of a child. I saw this with my own mother as she went through the death of a son, daughter, son-in-law and grandson. Our prayers and thoughts are with you as you go through this difficult time.

Brett and I grew up in Alexandria Jefferson high school together. We were good friends for many years. He always had my back in any situation. But his sense of humor is what I remember most. Wish I could make it to the celebration.
