To the family,
May God keep and hold you. In this time when words fail to reach the depth of your pain, know that God can and He will comfort you. I appreciate the kindness Bright exhibited each time I needed a friend. He was a good listener and gave great advice. Most of all, he was an example to us all as to what a respectful, professional and God fearing man looks and acts like. He will certainly be missed, but never forgotten.
