Every moment spent with him was special..from going camping with him and his brothers.. some of the best times we spent together, sitting for hrs in the dark and rain in Tiffanys car just me and you hobby just waiting for daylight with nothing to do but talk to each other, we didn’t even know what time it was we got flooded out of our tent..i remember when i first met you and when we first kissed we were both so nervous….to just sitting around playing video games or him letting me binge watch my favorite shows all night long even though he couldn’t stand them lol… he let very few people see how big his heart really was.. for the lucky ones who saw who he really was know how amazing it was to have him in our lives..he would have done anything for the ones he cared for…he was one of a kind.. I love you hobby more then anything in this world and I will miss you always so very much!!!

I did not know you, but I heard of you, because your father always talked highly of his you when he was my manager. May you fly High in heaven and my deepest condolences to your family and friends. Only the good die young…. my mother in law used to say after her son passed that God needed another rose for his garden and sometimes he picks us a little sooner because he needed the most beautiful ones. GOD bless you all prayers and comfort

Oh Brandon you will be missed so much. I remember when you first came into my life. Just a chubs who grew into a towering young man. I was thrilled when you accepted me into your family. We all had such good times together. You brought happiness into everyone’s lives. There are many people who love you and will miss you. I pray you are in peace now and watching over all those who love you. We will miss you always

And I would like you to know that I just had a little boy and we need him Kaisyn I wish you were here to see him we miss you as a family as a friend and as someone that I could always count on it didn’t matter how many years we spent in part but anytime I came back around you were always there I love you bro maybe someday we can meet in the middle Around Heaven love peace and chicken grease brother
