I lost my best friend on June 28, 1987, Bret was killed in a tragic vehicle accident at his residence. Just a week later he was to be the best man in my wedding. Bret's passing, for me was devistating. I had never lost anyone, not even a distant relative. We were very close, more like brothers. I spent more time at his house than mine. You could not ask for a better friend, a great Son to his wonderful parents. A perfect Husband to his wife Teresa. We, ( Jimmy Braneff, Darryl Weatherly, Bret & I) spent many, and I mean many late nights at his house, working on our cars, We spent alot of time Fishing, Hunting and Skiing the River. We were always up to something. Kids today are up to the TV and Video games, Its Sad. Brets Life was way too short, he was a great guy and I miss him everyday. My 17 yr. old son Bret is just like him. I wish they could have met. RIP my friend. Michael Howland
