Junior was a nice, full of energy, awsome kid. Back in 2012 he had helped me coach my fallball little league baseball team. All the kids looked up to him as a mentor and big brother. I thought of him as a little brother. He will truly be missed. RIH Junior Brett.
Junior worked for my dad. We never met, but every time I called home, my dad talked about him all the time. When my dad had a great attack last fall, Junior helped him decorate the house for Christmas–something that was so important to my dad and beyond his physical ability at the time. Talking with my parents today, their voices were filled with pain and fun stories about Junior. He is loved and will be dearly missed. My deepest condolences for your loss.

I remember the years at the fireworks when i saw you briefly and we’d hangout with marty on the docks. I remember all the times at Sonic when we’d hangout, they were great times. I wish i would’ve known you better but i cherished the times we did have. I’ll miss you

Junior was always the person in school who you could count on to be there in a time of crisis. He had your back no matter what, through thick and through thin. The type of moral support that coexists like that in a person is someone who will never be forgotten. I may have not known Junior that well but he will never be forgotten as he always has a place in my heart
I tried i tried so hard to go today. But i cant bring myself to see you for the last time.. i cant bring myself to believe that you are actually gone i wanted to be there do bad but i just couldnt do it. My favorite memory is when we were all up north fishing and it started to pour raining and you stayed outside till dark because you wanted the biggest fish and i came out to see you but you yelled at me and told me to go back inside because you didnt want me to get hurt walking on the dock or you accidentally hooking me like mikela and darrian got hooked. But i didnt want you to get hurt either i didnt want you to hurt ever. And i am so sorry i couldn’t stop you from walking the dock or from getting hooked and im so sorry. I never expected having to write this and have to apologize to you for not being able to bring myself to see you for the last time i thought i could do it i really did but i just couldnt but i am saying goodbye in my own way No not goodbye only until we meet agian. I miss you junior. I miss just knowing if i needed something youd be there no matter what..
Junior we never really hangout in person but you were always a great person to talk to and when we got in that stupid fight I regret not saying sorry or getting you to forgive me, but I am sorry and you were the sweetest guy I’ve ever met, I just can’t picture why you would do this. My condolences your lost but NEVER forgotten!
Hunan I love and miss you and me boxing all the time you thought me a lot I love you
It’s so crazy to let the fact that you’re gone sink in. Just two weeks ago we were partying having a good time, I got to see your beautiful smile. The weekend before that I stayed at your house and we played pool, and had an amazing time. We shared some good laughs. I remember seeing you and hanging out with you and your sister all the time when I stayed at my grandpas house.
And you made fun of my “choloate chip mint” ciggarettes.. It feels like it was just last night we were talking about our feelings and how sad we were and it’s too bad we wernt talking about our happiness. But you are for sure in a better place. Now you can be free and happy. I hope you’ll be looking down on me cause I’ll be looking up at you
Junior I can’t believe your gone you always made me laugh you always had a big ol smile on your face. Just remember your gone but not forgotten
