Lonely is the home without
Life to us is not the same.

All the world would be like heaven, if we could have you back again.

A light is from our lives gone.
A voice we loved is still.
A place is vacant in our lives that never can be filled.

May the God of love and mercy,
Care our loved one who is gone, And bless with consolation those left to carry on.

The happy memories we once enjoyed how sweet their memory still.

Obviously there are not words that can truly express my sadness for your loss. I am thankful that I met Brett at such a young age and was able to retain a friendship with him for many years. I will always keep ALL of you in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Marks Family-
We just got back into town and heard the horrible news about Brett. We have such wonderful memories of him growing up. I will never forget the joy on his face as he sang "Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer" at Northbrook Court, or when he talked about wanting to go to Space Camp, or when we'd bump into each other and he would just talk about life. He had a heart of gold. May his memory be for a blessing.

Dear Marks Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. While words can not express the sadness, I thought the words you each shared at the Funeral were so touching. Brett was incredible. I'll always smile remembering him at my childhood birthday parties. Even as he grew up, he still had the same child-like spirit that I loved about him as a kid. I will keep Brett and your family in my heart and prayers.
