    Cindy, I’m so sorry. Brec worked with me at KRC radio at Rockhurst and we also worked together on theater productions…he was our Mercutio. But most of all, he had been a supportive voice on my Facebook page since my husband’s unexpected death five months ago. If you would like to reach out at all please feel free to do so.

    Our sympathy to Brec’s family. He was a well-loved classmate, and we are sad to learn of his death. Many of us share fond memories of him, some all the way back to grade school. May he rest in peace.
