Dear Neil, Debra, Alexa and Morgan,
We just heard about Brendan from Pam and are terribly sorry to hear of your loss. I will always remember the privilege of working with Brendan very fondly. His sense of humor was unmatched and he was just an all-around great kid.
Our deepest condolences,
Scott and Linda Wright

Brendan's spirit will always shine in our hearts as we remember the times he visited our family and shared pizza and a movie. Truly an inspiration to our son, Nicholas, who enjoyed many special moments with Brendan. Little did he know what a special influence he was in our lives.
