He came into the world when everyone else was beginning to start their families. He was a loveable chunky baby that you could not resist loving on. His favorite things were drinking chocolate milk and eating chocolate cake and any other sweets he could find. Britt was also very adventurous. He had a skateboard that he played with and used one of his older brothers dog named Kingfish and would tie the leash to the dog to pull him down the street on the skateboard. He loved dirt bikes and playing the vinyl records (45in. & 33in. albums) from back in the day and reciting the book of Psalms 23.

He served on the USS Forrestal Navy Ship until he completed service on December 10, 1993.

After completing his service with the Navy, he attained several jobs such as security guard, gas station attendant, correctional officer, and maintenance at a local hotel.

Britt was a lover of people and was friendly to many that he met. He had a kind smile, and he liked to joke in order to help your day go better and he was quick with responsive comments. Britt liked to help people and would give advice when the opportunity became available to give.
