I am sorry for the passing of Bronson. My children have memories of him in children's church at William's Chapel in Spring Lake, NC. I will pray for God's strength in your time of sorrow. God bless you.

You always looked out for everyone. When you lived across the street from my parents you were their guardian angel. I never had to worry about them when you were around , even when you moved away you kept in contact and would bring some of those delicious meals by and make sure they were doing ok. When I would come to the Lake you would come by and we would talk and reminisce, you had that gift of gab... I know your in heaven sitting right next to the King reminiscing . RIP Good Brother..
