Rhett was gifted with the biggest heart on the planet and he used that heart for every person he cared about. He knew no stranger and could befriend anyone he would meet. He loved everybody, his family and friends, his horses and dogs. He very much enjoyed his role as uncle and he made instant friends with all kids. He was a cowboy, a horse and dog whisperer. He enjoyed the many hours he spent with his horses and dogs. His heart and his passions will be carried on for generations to come because of his kindness. He will be greatly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
