Dear Rhonda, Sean, Aaron and Keegan, my heart is heavy for your loss, cousin Bret was a good man. I recall Sean being very young in the hospital fighting cancer, Bret was such a loving, caring and devoted father spending many nights by Sean's side. Bret was always proud of his boys. I'll always remember Bret's big smile and always be proud he was my cousin. Bret, please say hello to Mel, Enes & Neville, cousin Ronny

Our hearts are filled with sorrow and we are so sorry to hear about your loss.
No words can express the sadness we feel, but take comfort in knowing that Bret has been greeted at heavens gate with open arms and that Auntie Enes is taking good care of him.
We cherish so many memories that our families have shared while growing up and throughout the years. Bret was a wonderful guy with a great sense of humour and he will be missed.
Stay strong, our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
With love,
