    Definately hits hard. Childhood friend, graduate friend, part of my family as I was part of his family growing up. Brett always treated me as an equal, helped me out with school, we were like brothers growing up. THEE nicest man you would ever meet or know. Peace be with you Brett. The memories are flooding.

    John and I were saddened to hear of Brett’s passing. He was a good friend of our son Matthew Meyer. I fondly remember Brett coming to our house and a trip we took with him, Matt, and Jason back to Missouri.
