I don't know where to start, it wasn't long after Brett's family moved in across the street from me ,that I realized we would become best friends, but after time he became like a brother, and his family accepted me as a son...I have so many fun and crazy memories with Brett that I could probably write a book...and I am so thankful for having those memories... Brett was always there when I needed him no matter what, and always knew what to say or do, to make everything right, he always knew how to have a great time, anyone lucky enough to have had the chance to meet him knows what im talking about, I know life wont be the same without him, but I also know that he is up there smiling down ready to pull another prank and just waiting for one of his partners to join him, my heart goes out to everyone who knew him, but Brett would want us to stay strong, and party on, I love you brother, and will see you again one day, and believe me I'm ready to do it all over again...RIP BROTHA, HOLLA
