Trevor and I grew up together. He was like a brother to me, like he was to so many others. I haven’t seen him in a long time, but my love and admiration for him has never changed. He reached out to me when my son joined the Army and that meant a lot to me. We all looked up to him as kids. He will be missed by many. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Warrior spirit, guardian heart. This sentiment was embodied by Trevor Albrecht. Whether you needed the kindness of a friend to listen, a selfless soldier to fight for freedom and justice or the steady hand of true leadership, Trevor was there. Trevor never asked for respect, and, he didn't have to. I have more respect for him than for anyone I've worked with. If you knew him, you loved and respected him. My life was truly enriched by having known Trevor Albrecht. I am a better person because of him- we all are. Thank you for everything, Trevor. God bless your precious family. Rest in peace.-Frank Tessien and family
