To the entire Albrect family and all his friends:

Brian was an amazing person with a sense of humor none will match. We spent a lot of fun times together growing up and I will definitely miss him. No matter what, Brian was always able to find the positive in life and I know he had a lot of caring friends around the country. It is a shame he has passed and will be missed. It is sad when some one with such a bright future has been lost. All my thoughts and prayers go out to all that miss Brian. He will be missed.

To the Albrecht Family,

It is never an easy thing to lose a family member and there is nothing I can say to make any of you feel any better. In sad times like these it is the caring friendships of those close to your family, their heartfelt sympathies, and caring thoughts and prayers that will ultimately help ease the hurt and sadness that comes with Brian's passing. This is a great loss to your family and you are all in our thoughts and prayers. Time will heal most of your wounds, and the memories of the loved, and lost, will fill those that will remain forever open. Our deepest and most caring thoughts and prayers are with you all.

The time Ms. Albrecht spent teaching our son and other "gifts from God" (our children) at Holy Trinity Catholic School it was clear she loved teaching and she loved children. We know she and her Husband loved their family in a unconditional Godly way. It breaks our heart to hear of this great loss.We, like many who love this talented and giving family will pray for peace and Our Lords comfort during this time of great loss.
