20 Sep 2023I wish my condolences to all of the family and hope Brett is in a better place now! I wish I could’ve met him before he died. I knew him of stories my mom used to tell about him and i probably have spoken to him several times on the phone when I was younger. ‘Who the hell is writing this all’ I hear you thinking…. Its Benjamin (Diana’s son of the Netgerlands) i came across this page searching for info on our family. I really hope that someday i can meet everybody in real life! Uncle darron aunt julie aunt lisa etc just EVERYBODY with brett looking from above 😇.
Wish everybody of my family the best health in the future and hope we can all have just 1 x-mas with the whole complete family 🤲.
The beat to all, Benjamin
