Miss you dearly Breckyn, you were a brother that I met on the diamond but you became my brother off the field as well. The most impressive thing about you isn’t just the talent that you had as a baseball player, but the kind of person you are. I loved being around you, you always brought an energy of happiness and authenticity to every interaction I had with you. You are truly 1 in a million. Love and Miss ya buddy.
