So sorry to hear that Brett has passed away.
I got to know him through my brother Charlie. Our regular visits to the old RWMC every Thursday. Going through the double doors with Charlie in a wheelchair was not easy. Brett would always come and help. Very dear friend . Brett helped me through some tough times.
Rip our dear friend.

Love Rusty,,Charlie

I have only known Brett for the last 3 years through our Bluff fishing trips and he was an awesome bloke and my bestie whenever we were in Bluff drinking or fishing. We allways seemed to be the first 2 at the bar and last 2 to leave. My sincere condolences to Kerry and family. Our Bluff trips will never quite be the same. RIP mate...
