I had known Brandon since I was 15. We instantly clicked and became fairly close. Despite breaks of us not speaking to each other in awhile, we continued on as if we talked every hour of the day.
My fav memory will probably be when he forgot to turn off his gps location on Snapchat when he decided to surprise me by coming home randomly without telling me (little did he know that I knew I could see his location). Despite me knowing he was on his way, he still managed to surprise me.
I got incredibly lucky to have known him for so long. He is a selfless man & I couldn’t name anyone else who’d drive 12+ hours to surprise me out-of-the-blue.
Brandon was a very special person in my life for many years. Some of the best years of my life. And I’m forever thankful to have these memories to hold and cherish forever. He always has and always hold a special place in my heart. 💜
I don’t have a great memory, but I’ll always remember how much he loved going to festivals to see Excision, Illenium, etc.. the very first year I went to Lost Lands with him and the boys I watched him geek out over the merch. He purchased a whole purple outfit, the year prior I believe, and kept adding more. He would be the dad of the group, making sure we were hydrated, fed, and having a good time. No matter how hard I tried to get lost, I would always run into him again. It was like home. I’m going to miss you always Brandon, I hope your watching over us still.
I worked with Brandon on his last assignment and thoroughly enjoyed our conversations about the latest and greatest computer hardware. I was shocked to hear of his passing. It was way to early. My prayers are with your entire family and hope he will find peace in our heavenly father's kingdom. God bless.
You brought a chair to sit in under the dino directly behind us in this photo, we will continue to do this for many years to come
Man it seems like it was just yesterday we were sitting in your room, watching silly YouTube videos, and playing video games. Your kindness and willingness to always be there for me and a lot of other people will be missed. You’ll forever be missed by us brotha.
