Brandon was in my literature class this term, and I will miss him very much. He was a good student, diligent, playful . . . I am so sorry for your loss.

I also had the pleasure of teaching a business class with Brandon at Saint Charles Community College. I remember a tall and vibrant young man who loved sports (vollyball) and his entrepreneurial landscaping business. A tragic loss and sympathies to all who cared for him.
