Yesterday

I'm so sorry to hear of Brett's passing. Thinking of you and your family at this heartbreaking time. I will never forget how amazing Brett's savant talents were. I remember he could distinguish EVERY SINGLE CAR SOUND, when we would come over he would be saying "Artie! Artie! Artie!" And how he knew numbers and dates was beyond fascinating and brilliant! He was 1 in 10 million! RIP Brett.

Brett was a sweetheart. So kind. So loving. My heart goes out to all who loved him and will forever hold him close to their hearts.
