My heart goes out to you Roxy and the whole family. I don't know if you remember me but I have been Brets friend since junior high. Your family welcomed me like I was Brets sister. I love Bret so much. We would just have to look at each other and would crack up laughing. His smile is beautiful and so is his soul. For years we were attached at the hip. He is one of the best parts of my life. Please accept big hugs and many prayers to you all.

Roxie and all,
Its very disheartening to hear of his passing. He seemed like a gentle soul the few times I hung out with him. I wish I had visited more often when I had the chance. Im at a loss for more words.
