Bro. Jack & Ms. Naomia,
We are sorry to read of the passing of Brett. He fought a long hard battle. We would have been there but we did not know until we read it in the newspaper after the funeral. We know how difficult this time is, but the Lord will see you through just as He has us. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and Brett's wife and son during this time of grief.

I was terribly saddened to hear the news today at school. Mrs. Holcomb told me. Both of my parents have been in the hospital in the past two weeks and I haven't even looked at a newspaper. Please know my prayers will be with all of you and I sincerely care. May God give you strength and peace at this time.

Now we have another reason to look forward to heaven.
