Brett Ashley Pinson joyfully went to be with the Lord on January 2, 2020. Brett was born January 11, 1964 in Corpus Christi, Texas. He graduated from Ray High School. Brett was ordained a Deacon at Southcrest Baptist Church which was a second home to him. He loved his church! He shared cheerfulness as he walked along Ocean Drive. Brett was a friend to all—especially to those at Whataburger near Texan Trail. He is preceded by his mother and father, Catherine and Norman Sr. (and faithful dog Shadow). He is survived by Paula, Grover and Norman Jr.; Tom and Jana; Nathan, Tim, Chris, Teddi and Jacci. We miss you and will see you soon!
