I met Brett once when we were real little at a wrestling tournament. He was one of those people who you just had to admire. Man could that kid wrestle. I never had the pleasure to get to know him but to no surprise to all that do know him, his name stuck in my head. And then today I came across his name atop a tragic story. My heart sank and I swelled. Brett, may you rest in peace and may your wife and daughter be safe under your watch.

Please accept our deepest sympathies.
