Brett was a happy-go-lucky lad that loved life to the max, he was very well known and very popular.
He was very pristine with himself, caring, funny and most of all a pleasure to be around.
At 18 Brett decided he wanted to do something with his life and joined the Royal Navy.
Brett travelled all over and trained as a paramedic and got posted over to Kosovo for 6 months.
On Bretts return, he found it difficult to deal with situations that had faced him in Kosovo and
found solance in drinking. Brett left the Navy and sunk further into depression.
In a bid to help himself, Brett appeared on the Jeremy Kyle Show after seeing a success story on
there similar to his own addiction, unfortunately Brett had gone beyond help and could no longer see
the light at the end of the tunnel.
Despite his loving families best efforts, Brett couldn't find the strength to fight the demons and
lost his fight alcohol, surrounded by his heartbroken family, in July 2007 after only drinking for 4
years.


From your Loving Mum

We are so sad to lose you,
You were too young to die,
I held your hand as you left me,
All I could do was cry.
You were a very special Son,
Although your pain was deep,
These last few years you struggled so,
I hope you've now found peace.
As you closed your eyes and left us,
My heart it broke in two,
Goodnight and God bless you Son,
As I thought the world of you xxx

Brett is loved, missed, cherished and talked about everyday. He wasnt just a Son, Brother, Cousin or
Uncle but a great friend to everybody that knew him. He leaves behind his heartbroken Mum that
misses and sheds a tear for him everyday.
But we know he is in Heaven looking down on us all.... So tonight, look for the brightest star and
say hello to *'Our Brett'*

FOR BRETT WITH LOVE

You are our special Angel
Up above in Heaven now.
We wish that we could hold you,
If only there was a way how.
You are still our beloved Son.
We keep you in our hearts.
We know someday we'll see you
And we won’t be apart.
But until then we'll think of you
In sunshine or in showers.
We will always keep on loving you,
And you will always be ours.
So take care our darling Brett
In Heaven up above.
And until the day we see you,
We'll send up all our love.

Cris Gallagher (Mum) Saturday afternoon

STILL MISSING YOU

They say that there’s a reason.
They say that time will heal.
But neither time nor reason
Will change the way we feel.

For no one knows the heartache
that lies behind our smiles.
No one knows how many times
we have broken down and cried.

We want to tell you something,
so there won't be any doubt.
You're so wonderful to think of
but so hard to be without.

We cannot bring the old days back
when we were all together.
The family chain is broken now
but memories live forever.

GOD BLESS

We bumped into each once when he was stil in training but as u do we lost touch, i have been lookin for him on facebook but never found him until remembrance sunday when i found this site at the bottom of fb and to my shock it was the Brett i was lookin for. I now live at chivenor wiv my husband who is in the army and to think that Brettt was posted here and that are paths could of crossed again . I am deeply sorry for your loss he was truely a great person.

WITH LOVE FOR BRETT

If only we could turn back time,
Life once again would be so fine.
Time would pass, you'd still be here,
To have, to hold, to love so dear.

If all the gifts of heaven and earth
Were ours to have, they'd have no worth.
The greatest gift in time and space
Would be to feel your warm embrace.

To have once more the peace we knew,
In the blessed gift of knowing you.
We know that love can't turn back time,
And life again will never be fine.
Time will pass, but you'll still be here,
In memory, held and loved so dear.

YOU ARE TRULY SPECIAL AND WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN.

Carol Love (GTS Friend) October 24, 2009

Broken hearts and shattered dreams,
Life torn apart at its seams.
Hearts and minds in pain and sorrow,
Missing you more, today, tomorrow.
Time can't heal and words won't mend,
The loss we feel at this sad end.
However long 'till we meet again,
You'll be remembered , but until then,
We wait with hope within in our hearts,
We'll be together, no more to part.

LOTS OF LOVE AND HUGS TO A VERY SPECIAL ANGEL
