BRET DAVID DAUGHTREY "Dotch" Bret David Daughtrey, "Dotch", born on October 29 1970, left our world on November 22, 2010. Born in West Palm Beach and raised in Jupiter, Bret D loved the out of doors and lived his life to the fullest fishing, free diving and hunting.

His father William "Bobby" Daughtrey; his mother Sandra Lidberg; his brother Chad Daughtrey; his stepfather David Lidberg; his loving aunts, uncles, cousins and his many, many wonderful friends will forever miss him. From Aunt Faye: "Saw the sunshine today and I thought of you. Drove across the James River Bridge and saw the boats and fishermen and I thought of you. Love the way "you" always knew how to take the scenic route in life - sunshine, sand and water." Dive deep sweet Bret. A celebration of Bret's life will be held 2:00 PM, Saturday, November 27, 2010 at Waterway CafŽ, 2300 PGA Blvd, Palm Beach Gardens FL (561) 694-1700 Bret's family welcomes donations to the Hospice of Palm Beach County, 5300 East Ave, West Palm Beach FL 33407 or the charity of your choice.

Brett was one of those few people who when you saw him... you knew you were going to laugh and have fun, never saw him in a bad mood, just a genuine, NICE guy. Will really miss running into him around town. LA (Jupiter, Fl.)
