William “Brett” Bellard, known to many as “Pistol,” earned his nickname as a child for always being in his daddy’s holster. He was a jokester with a tough exterior and a tender heart, fiercely protective of those he loved, and always ready to lend a helping hand. A true outdoorsman, Brett found joy in hunting, skeet shooting, working cattle, and spending time with his dog, Blu. Above all, he loved his family deeply. Brett will be remembered for his loyalty, humor, generous spirit, and the way he could light up a room and bring laughter wherever he went. He left behind more than memories; he left lessons in how to live—to love fiercely, help those in need, and bring joy to those around you.
