Happy 36th Birthday older brother. We all miss you so much. Our love for you is still so strong and will never fade. We enjoy seeing you in our dreams from time to time. Remembering small memories that bring laughter to us. Old videos that help us remember your sweet voice.
We cannot wait to see you again.
Love, Sister.

MyDearest Brandon, its been 12 years and its seems like you left us just yesterday. We miss you so much. I know you are with us in spirit but I would prefer to have you here with us to hold and see you :(
Your brother , sister, and I just got back from Florida a few days ago. Cant believe it's been 12 years since we've been back to Florida. We went to visit your memorial. Your beautiful tree has grown so much. We visited some of your friends and their kids. It was nice to see them and their families. We visited with Alex, it was very nice to see her as well. It was all going well, until I realized that we are seeing all your friends but you. I had this horrible feeling in my gut. It was super sad and depressing. I honestly think that's why its taken us so long to go visit Florida because in our heart we know we will not be seeing you there.
I look forward to seeing you one day. Until that day comes along, you will forever be in my heart and mind.
I Love you to the moon and back!!

It's about to be your 2 year anniversary and it's still difficult to post a message to this guest book. I don't even know where to begin. Brandon Michael Soliz I have missed you so much that words can't even describe it. There's not a day that goes by that I don't think of you. I wish every day that you were still here with us. You were young with a beautiful life and you should still be with us here today.
Everytime I go up to my office I read the beautiful poem you wrote me one year for mothers day. You mention in your poem that I'm the best step mother one could have, well I can say the same about you, your the best son any lucky mother would love to have. It is such a beautiful poem that I will cherish it forever. I pray to god at night that he at least let me dream about you so I can see you and maybe get to hear your voice. I miss the times that you would come down and we would all go to the mall and spend time together. You, Aaron and your dad would walk ahead of me and I would just laugh at how the three of you would have the same way of walking, with ya's little rears up in the air. I always thought that was so cute. I never thought in a million years that when I last saw you on July of 2008 that it would be the last time I got to see you or hold you. When you would come to visit and would leave I typically wouldn't cry, cause I knew you would be ok, but this time It was different. I cried quite a bit and looked back to see you.
Brandon I will love you forever and ever. I will see you one day in heaven cause I know that's where your at. Thank you for being such a beautiful and wonderful son, and thank you for watching over your brother and sister. I will Love you forever and ever. Mom #2

Brandon,
I think about you all the time and a good release is to write to you on here. I miss you more than i could ever express and wish that i could talk to you just one last time. All i have are pictures and memories, but they will never be enough. You were the most caring and dedicated person i had ever met. You always put others before yourself and treated me so well. It was an honor to know you and be a part of your life. So many people love and miss you and you will always live on through our hearts. I visit your site often so that i can feel close to you. I miss and love you Brandon and thank you for everything...

i don't know what to say, but apart of me say's that there is something i should say.
i never knew brandon, i don't know your family but i feel something inside of me, like i have a connecion to you... to him. that's all i can really think to say. i am so sorry for your lose, i know it's stupid to say, stupid to say i'm sorry as if that would bring him back. and i know it doesn't help to say i'm sorry but what else is there really to say. god bless him and your family... he is gone physically, but he is still there in spirit. :)

I never meet brandon but i do know his sister... from what i heard about him i knew he was a great and loving person. the day i heard of his death i cryed because a great soul was lost. i know the pain of losing a family member and how you can never replace them, and not a day goes by they aren't in your heart or on your mind. i feel so deeply for you and pray that when the time is right you will be with him again.

Dear Brandon and family,
It's been awhile since i last wrote. I just want you to know that I think about you from time to time.The reminder is always there,it's hard to miss when you drive the Turnpike everyday and exit @ the Coral Ridge Exit. I always say a prayer as I am exiting the turnpike @ the Coral Ridge Exit.When I get home and look across the hall where you and your mom use to live it's hard to know that we'll never see you again, at least not in this life time.Losing someone is one of the hardest things in life, I know...I lost my husband @ 27...but I've never lost a child,I can only image what your parents are going through. Brandon, I hope your soul is at peace. May God Bless you and your family.

I still remember the last time we talked, as if it was only yesterday. Its been about 3 months now and I miss you like never before. Its been difficult to realize that you're really not here anymore, but I know that you're watching over all of us. I miss you so much and the way you used to make fun of me and make me laugh..all the little things that made us "unique" and all the memories that we created.

p.s. have fun with grandma!!!!
love you forever cousin....

My thoughts and prayers are with your family, especially you mom, in this difficult time. You will be missed dearly and always remain in my heart.

It's been 17 days and not one day has gone by that I haven't thought of you. I miss you so much. One of my other friends just passed away on Saturday and hearing about that made me cry because I kept thinking of you. I know you wouldn't want that and that's why I have been trying so hard not to cry but it's tough. I walk into work and you're not there and it sucks!! I could really use you at the front door to help me because people don't listen to me because I'm a girl lol but they were all intimated by you and your muscles :) I can't believe that all this happened 20 minutes after I said goodbye to you. Who would have known that "goodbye" would have been forever. I was supposed to wear your shirt to work that night then stupid me changed my mind :( I wish you were still here B. I didn't get to know you for years, but I feel blessed to have known you for the time I did!! God Bless you and your family. I miss you Brandon <3

To the family of Brandon Michael Soliz, I did not know Brandon well, but I saw him in passing many times and said hello. Brandon and his mom were my neighbors that lived across the hall from me. My son Robert is the one that came home to tell me of this tragedy. My son looked up to Brandon. Robert mentioned that he and Brandon talked many times and said he thought he was a really "cool" guy. I'm sorry that I didn't get the chance to know him. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you Brandon and your family. May God comfort you all in your time of sorrow.
Sincerely,
Patsy & Robert Koons

Brandon,
Again as usual i dont know where to start! You were such an inspiration to my life, you always told me I was so sensitive and to tighten up. The last few text messages I have from you will never be deleted like where you said Good Morning Grouch, although its so mean, i know you didnt mean it that way, and its just you. The you that i just loved so much! Well of course I still do! There is nobody like you and there never will be! You will always have a special place in my heart and in my thoughts! I asked that you watch over me, and help me get thru the sensitive side :) One day I wont be such a va-jay-jay! Oh the way you use to make me laugh, and our last night together. Those are the only things I want to think about when I think of you. Everytime I look at your picture on my desk I want to cry but instead I just try to remember the good things and know that you are in a better place now, a place that nobody can hurt you. I hope that one day we can meet again! Until then, you will be in my thoughts from day to day and you in my heart will never fade away! I luv you Brandon Soliz! I still cant even believe you are gone, but god works in mysterious ways! He only takes the ones he wants, so young. But you know, I know he did it for a good reason! I miss you so much, and things will just never be the same. Going to the sawgrass and putting a teddy bear on your cross in the middle of traffic was by far the craziest thing i have done in a long time, but it was done with no hesitation what so ever! A piece of you was brought back with me and will never leave! Cane says " I Ruv You!..:) So glad you got to hear it and know i was telling the truth about my talking dog :)...anyways, I think I have signed every book possible just to release my feelings! I think is my last goodbye for now, until i see you again! Take care of yourself and please watch down on those you left behind! Miss you sooo much!.. Love ya babe!!!! <3 Always Bubblez, aka Nikki

Brandon was taken too soon. He had so much more left to offer those that knew him and those that had not yet had the privilege..... Stand up guy, loyal, respectful, honest, driven, and charismatic. The list of qualities Brandon possessed could easily go on. We feel lucky to have known him and honored to have been considered his friends.

Dear Brandon, im going to be absoultly honest here, and i really dont care who reads this because were all feeling the same way about you.
There is no mement through out the day, i dont think about you. i will cry, tear up, burst out in tears. and everyday i seem to realize that this isnt a dream anymore, its actual real life. i miss you so much, and i know everyone says that i miss you so much, well when i say that I MEAN that everyday i see you. everyday i think of you standing alittle distance away looking at me and smiling, ( your smile was the best thing that would cheer me up.) and then i just cant stand but to cry and try to smile back. as of now i cant consentrate much on things, but i try my hardest to, after your death i pulled out a card and it sits on my dresser, it was for my birthday saying how proud you were of me for doing good in school and now im trying to keep it up. Everyday i write a note on my phone trying to reach to you instead of typing a textmessage i type a note to you, kinda like a prayer. i saw how my day went and how im doing.it helps me alittle bit, i feel like it will reach you. i dont know if you get them but i feel that you do even though i cant send them anywhere. anyways, sometimes i kinda get tired of people saying there sorry, it helps but then it also hurts us. it helps us by showing how much they really are sorry and how much they care, but then it hurts by reminding me everyday that i lost my brother. i still have the two best brothers ever, but i lost one that i truley loved. and of course its not i had one brother , no its i have one brother and another one. its going to be hard for aaron to be leaving to community college and me staying here, but somehow inside me i know that you will be with me the whole way, as your going to be with aaron. Brandon i know that you dont like me doing this and i know that you would be mad if i ever said this but you know what? its how i feel. and i honestly need to get them out. Brandon you know what i loved the most about you? is the way you have dad humor, you always new how to make me smile and all the inside jokes we have still get to me this instint. i will never forget them, and i never thought i would be doing this so soon too. anyways, the other thing i loved about you was your smile(: that was the best thing about you(: haha. anyways. lets see what else can i say. oh, i regret not seeing you in august, i flipping totally regret it... i should have just saw you. i cant forgive myself for not seeing you. it hurts me. and the last time talking to you. we were talking about how you would be moving back. hmm i have alot of pictures of you on my computer and last saturday i was searching through my computer and i found a little voice message, it wasnt anything that was supposed to be recorded but it was just a little mess up i did on my camera but atleast i get to hear ur voice everyonce in a while when i need to hear it, haha it says something about taking a picture of my shoes? haha it makes me laugh. i have so much more to say but i think i wrote alittle over board but i dont really care. i needed to speak out. brandon through all of this i hope you can get the point on HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i will NEVER! ever ever ever ever ever ever ever forget youu!!
i lovee you so muchh!

Brandon, we will so miss your easy smile and your heart of gold. I dreamt last night that you were with your Great Grandmother Elizabeth, so when I woke up, the thought of it made me smile for a bit. We will take care of your mom and I know you will watch over her forever. I'm so glad we were able to spend a little time with you when we came down to Florida in February. It was great to see the amazing man you had grown into. We love you and always will.

Brandon,
I still cant get over the fact that your gone. Only an hour before your passing, your were the last thing I talked about and the last picture I looked at before I went to sleep that night. I never would've thought that my plans to see you the next night would never be because you were taken from us. Whenever I needed a shoulder to cry on, the encouragment to continue, a word of advice, a really fun night out, a day/night of smiles and laughs or even to be told the god to honest truth whether i wanted to hear it or not I could ALWAYS come to you for it. You were a best friend to me and the brother I never had. The comfort of your hugs were always something I could count on. You were a person I complimented on a daily basis. I always had nothing but great things to say about you and wonderful memories made together. Someone I looked up to. I just have to keep telling myself that "god wanted his angel back. And that maybe you can help those closest to you better up there than you could down here." You will NEVER be forgotton. I know without a doubt you are heavens best looking angel. I'm sure you're still Big Pimpin ;-) I love you! x0x0x0

Only brothers could've done what we've done to each other all these years and still have that love for each other! Now that this has happend, I will never forget all the great memories that we've had together, the great and the harldy never not so great times!!! There was never a dull moment with you and you could always make me laugh when times were hard. Im so thankful for having you in my life after all these years. I will be here in Texas, waiting for you at home for your return! I love you and I will see you soon Brandon....... -Todd

It’s a tragedy that Brandon was taken from us so soon. Brandon touched so many lives with his kindness, generosity, thoughtfulness and honesty. He always had a shoulder to lean on when you needed to cry, and he always supported you with encouragement when you didn’t think you could make it through a tough time. I know all this, because he was all this and so much more to my daughter Brittany. He was her best friend and she loved him so much. We will miss that bright smiled, sharp dressed, good-looking guy stopping by to hang out with Brittany. Brandon, will be missed, but I know God has bigger plans for him. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends. All my love and deepest sympathies, Patty Smolka
