Brett

My Brother Brett died unexpectedly last Thursday, November 7th.  He took his life and our hearts are broken.  My sweet brother suffered from Bipolar and major depression from the time he was thirteen years old.  Please lift up my family in your prayers especially my Mom and Dad who lost their youngest son.

So many of us are left with our own guilt of wishing we had done more and been there more for him but that doesn't do anyone any good. We loved him beyond words and we miss him terribly but we do have peace in hour hearts knowing that he is finally at rest and with God our Father in heaven.

Our dearest Brett, oh how fiercely you were loved.  What we would give for just one more hug. 

We miss you so much my handsome, sweet brother.  Your beautiful blue eyes, your wit, and your gentle, quiet way. 

We ache for how you suffered in this life and for the valiant battle you fought to overcome your pain.

But oh how we rejoice in knowing that you are finally at peace with your heavenly Father.

The Lord says, come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest.  Mom, Dad, David and I and All of those who loved you dearly know in our hearts that you are finally at rest.

No more sadness, no more tears as you dwell in God’s home. 

Only peace and pure joy is what you now know. 

We will embrace again in the heavens one day, I know this for sure.  But till then our sweet Brett, we will miss you with all of our hearts and we will honor you by living our lives according to God’s will and in the best way that we can.  And we will be strong like you tried so hard to be.

We love you.
