I am so sorry for the loss of Brandon. He was a wonderful person who could make anyone laugh at anytime. I know you miss him, but I believe his daddy missed him more and needed him by his side. My thoughts and prayers are with all of the family. May God bless you and give you peace and strength during this time.

We met Brandon while he was playing B-team football at REL and my husband was his coach. At the very beginning Coach Cotton gave him the nickname of "Oatmeal". You never met Brandon when he wasn't smiling. There were a lot of memories made on that football field and it grieves our hearts to hear of Brandon's passing. I can not imagine the pain that your family is going thur but I do know that GOD will bring you thur this. He will also be with you every step of the way. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.
Coach "Cotton", Marilyn and Dusty Evans

Dear Linda and family:
It is so sad to know that such a young light has now gone. I miss those great smiles of Elvin and Ethel Mae, and although I did not know Brandon, I imagine his smile too. May you somehow find peace when visualizing those smiles. God bless you. -- Elvin's first cousin - Gayle Baker, Alexandria, VA
