At the time of his death, on September 1, he was engaged to marry Jane Machi of Brookfield, Wis. They were to be married on May 23, 2008. He was father/ mother to ten year old Matthew, loved history and politics, the Brewers, the Packers, but secretly the Vikings and Twins too. Brett was an avid baseball card collector.

Funeral services were held at the church on September 8. Pallbearers were his Bible study pals. Private interment will be in Red Wing. He was an active member of the Southwest Milwaukee YMCA since 1997, and spoke in the city for the Strong Kids Campaign of 2005/2006. We will especially remember that Brett told Jane "love is action".
Brett's family consists of his son, Matthew; his parents; a brother, Mark (Jenny) of Overland, Kansas; a sister, Jacueline (Mike Shepperd) of Roseville, Minn.; three nephews, Anthony, Tanner and Trenton Edwards; his fiancé, Jane, and her extended family who embraced and loved him. In addition, two men were like brothers to Brett: Chris Hempel of Glendale, Calif.; and his cousin, Dave of Lake Mills, Wis.
Memorials will go to a fund for the care and education of Matthew Taylor Edwards.
