The family greeted all guests paying respects to Brett from 2-9 p.m. on Aug. 8 at the First United Methodist Church in DeRidder, with a rosary at 7 p.m.
Brett was born March 15, 1994 in Lake
Charles, to Richard Miller and Tammy Renell Kennedy, and his precious life was ended early involving a tragic accident on Aug. 6, 2013, in Leesville. During his early childhood years Brett attended Oak Grove Methodist Church in Burr Ferry. In Brett’s
later years he attended St. Margret Catholic and Beech Grove Methodist Church. Brett enjoyed fishing, hunting, playing his guitar, playing the accordion and riding four-wheelers. Brett never met a stranger; he was always caring and compassionate to
those around him and never had a care in the world allowing him to live life in its absolute fullest. When you looked at Brett, you saw a good ole country boy with a huge smile, big dimples and bright blue eyes.
Brett was preceded in
death by his paternal grandmother, Beryl Miller; maternal grandmother, Elaine Kennedy; paternal great-grandparents, T-Will and Dorothy Miller; maternal great-grandparents, Travis and Artie Morrison and Grady and Viola Kennedy.

Miller; paternal great-grandparents, Emily and Cleve Christ; aunts and uncles, Kristi and Patrick Leger, Bryan and Janna Kennedy, Amanda and Jody Patterson, Andy and Kristie Kennedy, Jason Miller; God parents, Loran and Patty Victory along with
