Tiffany and Kevin, you both did an amazing job raising such an amazing young man. Breckyn was the best of the two of you and the world was a better place with him in it.
But it will continue to be a better place because he has left his mark on this world. Anyone who knows him or knows of him will forever be a better person because of it?
Breckyn, thank you so much for always protecting your little cousin Emma, she loves you so much and is going to miss you each and every day.
You rest now my handsome nephew and know that you left a high impact on so many hearts.
I love you handsome
Love Auntie Treba
