My Brother

There have been a couple people in my life that have been an impact that changed me as a person and there is none other than Brett Foxwell that changed it more. There are so many stories that I could tell. We shared a love for many things but none stronger than baseball. It was an honor to be your battery mate. We were always on the same page when you were on the mound and I was behind the plate. These were some of the greatest memories I will ever have with you. One of the funniest times we were on the field was when we were playing in high school at PA and we had a game at Kellem high school and the ball was popped straight up and I was under it ready to make the play and here come Brett and bowls me over and doesn’t catch the ball. ( might be the only time we were on separate pages). Or when we were playing in all stars at fleet park and you had not played the whole time we were playing over on the eastern shore and you were put in to pinch run and you tried to steal on the first pitch and got thrown out with our even reaching second base and as you come running back to the bench you go by coach and just say “thats what you get for putting me in” LOL. I will always cherish the time we spent on the field. Man I miss you everyday. Not a day goes by that something reminds me of our time together and I can not wait to see you again and play catch in heaven someday. I love you brother and my life is better to have had you in it.
