He was born in Fort Lauderdale, Florida to John and Sylvia Adkins in 1972 and spent most of his childhood years in Houston, Texas. He attended school at Cypress Creek High School in Houston, and Baylor University in Waco, TX.
Brett was a loving father, a caring son, and a loyal, fun-loving brother. He was also very supportive to his friends- from school, church, work, and his support group. Brett was committed to his Christian faith and enjoyed attending Fellowship Dallas Church.
Brett’s major passions were fishing, sports and music. He was a true
Texan- a loyal fan of the Texas Rangers, Dallas Cowboys and Texas country music. He made fast and lasting friends everywhere he went, with his quick wit, big heart, and unique sense of humor (and infectious laugh)!
Brett is survived by his daughter, Addison Adkins, Nicholas Armfield who was like a son to Brett; his mother Sylvia Adkins; his brother Jay Adkins, his wife Jessica, and their daughters Claire and Katherine; his brother Scott Adkins, his wife Jamie,
and their children Emily, Abbie and Evan. Brett is preceded in death by his father, John Adkins.
