Bubba I still miss you everyday. I can't believe how long it's been since i saw your face. I wish you were here to play with Ellie and your soon to be nephew Wyatt! I'm gonna nickname him Bubba, just like you so maybe a little bit of you is remembered daily. I love you and miss you.

We've been thinking about you as the years go by. I can't believe you left this world so long ago. I wish Ellie had got to meet you. She would have loved her uncle Bubba. Oh...how the two of you would have laughed. We just miss you and as the years go by it doesn't seem easier.

Dear Brandon,
I can't believe you left this world over three years ago. Thank God for the years we had together. You were the best brother. Though you are physically not here, your presence is felt around me. And though new memories are made without you, I treasure those we had together. I look back on the days of our youth and remember that laughter (and tears) you brought me. I would not be the person I am today if you were not in my life. Bubba, I love you and miss you everyday of my life. I will never forget the friend you were to me. I will never forget your jokes and antics, but most of all, I will never forget the hero you are. You are greatly missed by all who were touched by you. I think of you daily and can not wait to see you again.
Love,
Your Big Sister
Misti

Two years ago today, the doctors stopped Brandon's heart and my friend, my brother in Christ stepped into eternity with Lord Jesus. I miss him so much. I am thankful for the confident and sure hope that the Lord gives me that I am going to see my friend again. I am so grateful to the Lord for this promise and I long for that day. I pray for those who received Brandon's organs that they will live long and healthy lives. I pray for all who loved Brandon, family and friends, to know Lord Jesus and to remember the confident and sure hope we have of seeing him again in Heaven someday. I love you all. God bless you always.

I can't believe my brother has been gone nearly two years. Though the holidays are tough without him around, my family has rejoiced in knowing those he lives on through. God has Brandon watching over us everyday. We have all those memories that we can share with one another. I will always remember my brother and friend.

Brandon was my first date, My first kiss, My first true love he taught me truth and he showed me happiness. I spent 3 yrs of my youth with Brandon, in doing so i became a better person. Brandon is truly an angel not just in death but lived as one in life. He guided me through some very tough times by teaching me and showing me how to keep God in our sites. I was truly changed and blessed for every moment i had, as i know all you feel the same. What a remarkable guy! I hold all of you, his family, in my prayers every day. May you find comfort in the memorys of Brandon and true strength in God.

Though my family misses Brandon, in the last year we have been able to see the impact he had on others. We graciously donated his organs to others. In the last year we have received many letters from those that have received the gift of life. Among those were Larry, a grandfather from Colorado, Peyton, a young child, and Monty. Last September, my mother and I traveled to Colorado and saw the sight of the accident. While there, we also met Larry and his wife. Larry received half of Brandon's liver and has since recovered beautifully. Just recently we received pictures of Peyton, the baby that received the other half of my brother's liver. It apparently is playing and acting as other children do. Last, we heard from Monty. Monty received both lungs of Brandon's. Brandon's kidneys and pancreas were also placed with donors. However, the man that was to receive Brandon's heart was unable to. Upon being sent to OR, his health failed and he then needed a heart-lung transplant. Since the lungs were both placed with Monty, this was not possible. So, Brandon's heart went towards research. However, they were able to save the valves for valve replacement for children. Though we will never know who received that lively part of Brandon, we hope that his gift helps. In our eyes, Brandon is a hero, he saved lives with his. God had his plan for this and he rejoice in knowig that one day we will see him again. Brandon we remember you this Memorial Day not for fighting for our country as others have, but for helping save others in your own way. We love you and miss you. May your spirit live on in others and may all those touched by Brandon's gift live full and healthy lives. Love, Brandon's Sister Misti

Not seeing Brandon since the day we graduated has made a strong impact in my life. I took for granted that I would get to see him anytime that I wanted. I miss him very much!!!! He was a wonderful brother!!

I've never had a closer or more genuine friend in my life. The memories Brandon left with me will never fade. I miss my friend, and will never forget the time we had.

Brandon,
I babysat you when you were a small boy.
You and Misti were a delight and great joy.
I had a dream last night that I spoke with God on the phone.
He had you in his arms and said you were his very own.
I thanked him for loaning you to us for a while.
We will never forget your beautiful smile.
We love you dearly.

Brandon was always the life of the party. He was a free spirit. He would always find a way to bring a smile to your face, whether with jokes (Ask me if I'm a tree?) or with entertainment (he once went skinny dipping in OBU's water fountain).
I will miss him very much. I will miss his analytically questions and answers. I will miss his big heart and smile, and even that laugh of his. I could not have asked for a more loving and annoying brother, and the world will miss him greatly.

Brandon will truly be missed by everyone. You could not ask for a better step brother. He ALWAYS had you laughing at something for one thing or the other!
Brandon-we love you & miss you.
We will see you again someday!

Dear Brandon's Family,
May the Lord Jesus Christ give you comfort during this difficult season of grief. Brandon's tragic and untimely death has brought deep pain to us all but he would be the first to say that he is in a better place. I thank God that I shall see him again someday and may the Lord hasten that day. God bless you all. Love, Will

I am truly saddened by the tragic loss of your son, grandson, brother. I also want to extend a heartfelt thank you to you for making the tough decision to donate Brandon's organs. Thinking of others during this extremely painful time has not only given new life to someone but also extended Brandon's legacy. You all are in my thoughts and prayers. I am so sorry that I will be unable to attend Brandon's funeral.
