RIP Brandon 10/25/80 - 1/27/08
There will never be a day when I don't think of you. Your smile is etched in my mind it helps with the grief that is left behind. I will miss you everyday for the rest of my life. Everyday I grab a memory and place it in my heart to keep it safe until the day God calls me home.
Love,
Mama. 1-27-2024

Brandon,
Thinking of you today. Your sister and I went to brunch for your birthday. She has a beautiful baby boy his name is Carson Makai. I know you're watching over her and your nephew. She is a terrific mommy. I also know that you have her children with you and are loving them and watching them until we are together again. As I sit here and reflect on the years that have gone by and all the loved ones who have made it to heaven I know that you all are together it brings a smile to my face. The world here as you know it is quite different things are pretty bad down here we are in trouble times with a pandemic and political differences causing havoc in America. Fires and destruction are taking place. We got a new President and with God's will I pray that he guides him to make peace. Watch over us as we continue to take this journey. Continue to take care of your sisters children. Kiss Grandpa and Nana and your Uncles. Let UG know that I will continue to watch over his family. Tell him Uilani needs him to watch over her she really is having a rough time with losing him. And until she can see that he still is with her he still needs to show her signs. I love you Brandon with everything in me.

I always took for granted,
what I thought I'd never lose.
Because I never thought it would happen,
until I heard the dreaded news.
They say you were chosen for his garden,
His preciously handpicked bouquet.
God really needed you,
That's why you couldn't stay.
Saying goodbye is never easy,
It's the hardest thing to do.
But what hurts me even more
Is that I never got to say good bye Brandon and that you where truly loved.
So today, Jesus, as you are listening
in your home above;
Would you go and find my son,
And give him all my love! And tell him I truly miss him.
Love Brandon's Mom.
LOVE AND MISS YOU MAMA
October 25, 2011
You were taken too soon,
Before I was ready to let you go.
I never knew I would have to give you up,
And now I am glad I didn't know.
Your star shone so bright when you were here,
Such a special person that loved everyone.
I was sure that you would go far,
But Heaven was a little too far, my son.
I will miss holding you forever,
Until at Heavens gates we meet again.
When finally we are no longer apart,
And you with joy show me in.
For now I look to the sky, and make a wish-
That you go on a extra walk down the road for me,
And look at all the beauty of that place
Where God decided that you needed to be
Love Mama
October 24, 2011
Happy Birthday Brandon!! Miss you So Very Much!!

Carry my heart with a gentle touch
for the pain is sharp and hurts so much
A son has left and went away
to the precious heavens his soul shall stay
Life continues to deal this hand
of senseless cards I don't understand
If I could have seen the future ahead
I would've begged God to take me instead
But life don't allow us that choice
of turning back time to hear my voice
Memories fade as new ones appear
of my loving son I hold so dear
Everyday pain renews its face up high
knowing I never got to say good`bye
My heart is pure and will remain that way
so I can be with my son again one day
I Miss you more than you will ever know Momma*
Love Mama

If we could bring you back again,
For one more hour or day,
We’d express all our unspoken love;
We’d have countless things to say.
If we could bring you back again,
We’d say we treasured you,
And that your presence in our lives
Meant more than we ever knew.
If we could bring you back again,
To tell you what we should,
You’d know how much we miss you now,
And if we could, we would.
I miss you son more than ever. I think of you daily somedays I cry others I smile remembering your big smile that stretched across your face of things you said and done. Of the times we shared together as mother and son.
I know your not far so just give a twinkle now and then so I know your here.....

A Mother's Tears on Christmas
I have filled an ocean with tears.
Salty and bitter, they flow from my soul.
All the grief, all the pain
All the sadness, all the fears.
All the hurt, all the whys.
All the could haves, all the loss.
All the regrets, all the lost chances.
All the wants, all the goodbyes.
I have filled an ocean with tears.
Sweet and soft, they flow from my soul.
All the joy, all the laughter
All the love, all of the years.
All the rewards, all the smiles.
All the triumphs, all the hellos.
All that was right and all that was good.
All the kisses and hugs from my son.
I have filled an ocean with tears.
Salty and bitter, sweet and soft.
For love, for sadness, for joy, for pain.
I have filled an ocean with tears.
I miss him so much can't wait to be near until then all I can do is fill the ocean with my tears..

Loss can come upon you suddenly and overwhelm you with grief. I am giving myself time and space to heal, and being real with the Lord about my pain. My comfort is from prayer asking God to give me strength to make it through another day. I pray for God to give us answers. My heart is so heavy another Birthday is here and memories are flooding my face with tears....
Love Mama

I Miss You
I sit and think of you then I start to cry.
I miss you so much why did you half to die?
The only thing that I can hear is a deep scream inside my ear.
My head is pounding so much now a days.
Why did he take you away?
The biggest thing that I can say is I'm missing you everyday.
I'm sitting looking at the starry sky and just keep asking God why?
The night is dark and the fire sparks.
but through all that's happened
I'm able to say it God who has given me strength....

Dear Lord,
Please help me in this time of loss and overwhelming grief. I don't understand why my life is filled with this pain and heartache. But I turn my eyes to you as I seek to find the strength to trust in your faithfulness. I will wait on you and not despair; I will quietly wait for your salvation. My heart is crushed, but I know that you will not abandon me forever. Please show me your compassion, Lord. Help me through the pain so that I will hope in you again. I believe this promise in your Word to send me fresh mercy each day. Though I can't see past today, I trust your great love will never fail me.I miss him so much Lord my heart his heavy I know you will lift me from my darkness and show me the light
Amen

My Son’s Christmas
My Son’s Christmas is simple and bright
He will sing the music, and laugh in the light,
Sparkling colors are a magical spell,
The instant joy flows bubbling and well.
But round that tree I see a space,
Beside the table an empty place,
A voice is missing, a form of grace,
The sweetness of Brandon’s face.
A vacuum was left by my son who's gone.
Though all may seem right, yet it's terribly wrong.
I'd give up all my Christmas’s, and all my years
To clasp that small hand again in mine to her his voice and see his smile
I give all to do this just one more time.
Mama and Tasha

Hey Brandon,
I know I haven't written to you lately but please know I think about you all the time. I believe you are in heaven talking junk and cutting jokes....but most of all keeping a smile on everyone's faces. I came across our Hawaii photo albums the other day and sat and reminisced on all the GREAT times we had...they are all held very near and dear to my heart!!~ I love you still and always!

God picked a flower
Sometimes God picks a flower that's still in full bloom.
Sometimes the flower that he has chosen, we feel He's picked to soon.
We're at peace knowing your in God's heavenly garden,
Our lives have been changed forever into a Bouquet of Beautiful Memories,
that are Sprayed with a Million Tears.
We wish God could have spared you if just for a few more years.
Today you stand in God's bright light.
Watching over us day and night.
In our hearts you will remain
Until the day we meet again...
Forever Your love will live on in our hearts
and the hearts of those you touched.
We are so grateful to God for blessing our lives with
the beautiful gift of you.
We miss you Brandon,
more than you can ever imagine.
Your smile, Your laughter and those Twinkling eyes…
Will forever be in all our memories of you forever
My Son…
Happy Thanksgiving!

Its been 2 birthdays my son and
Although you’ve passed from this world
And left my world in sorrow
I know that I must go on
And face this life tomorrow
Memories of birthdays past
Hold my heart at bay
And I have no words to say
I will try to find solace
Until your next birthday

I thought of you with love today,
But this is nothing new,
I thought of you yesterday and the days before that too.
I think of you in silence and often speak you name.
All I have now are my memories, and your picture in a frame.
It broke my heart to lose you, but you didn't go alone.
A part of me went with you that day God took you home
Little did we know that morning that God would call you name?
In life I loved you dearly my son, in death I do the same.
It broke my heart to lose you, when you were taken away.
Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same.
But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again
Your smile keeps me going until we link again....

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you feed a stray cat,
and I thought it was good to be kind to animals.
When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw your big smile
and I knew that little things are special things.
When you thought I wasn't looking, I heard you say a prayer,
and I believed there is a God I could always talk to.
When you thought I wasn't looking, I felt you kiss me goodnight, son
and I felt loved.
When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw tears come from your eyes,
and I learned that sometimes things hurt, but it's all right to cry.
When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw that you needed me
and I wanted to be everything that I could be.
When you thought I wasn't looking, I looked...
and wanted to say thanks for all the things I saw when you thought I wasn't looking I will cherish all the times I looked now my son for I can never look again..

My Precious Son
I Can’t Tell You Sweetheart
How Many Tears I’ve Cried
Since The Day I Was Told
My Precious Son Had Died
It Seems Impossible
Although I know it’s true
Because everything I see
Reminds Me Of You
I Still Hear Your Laughter
I Still See the Smile On Your Face
I Would Have Lost My Sanity
If Not For God’s Saving Grace
I Have so many memories that are planted in my heart
Just tell me what to do my Son it is Christmas and I miss you so much
I wish I had just one last hug and kiss and to tell you how much your Loved
But This Is Not Good-bye
For You Will Forever Walk Softly
In My Heart And In My Mind
Merry Christmas Brandon We miss you.

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
thinking of you today... love and miss you

I could tell that You were with me by the footprints in the sand. As I gazed upon the heavens, I saw pages of YOUR LIFE. And remembered your GLOW AND SMILE as we set your ashes free. We weep no more for we know that You are free now my Son to walk and play with GOD in Heaven.....MAMA

I swam out with your ashes and we all placed some Flowers and Lei's out into the Ocean and said some Prayers. My Son I Miss you so much but believe in my heart that God has a Plan for us all and that it was God's will to take you Home with him to give you Peace and Happiness. Your Presence that day was strong and I know you were looking down at us and Smiling that Big Happy Smile and telling me that you were OKAY.

I visulize you playing in Streams and Waterfalls with them and Laughing and Happy my Son so I know that everything is okay. You are always in my my thoughts so Rest in Peace my Son for the Lord has a JOB for you to do in Heaven along with all the other Angels.

It is Mother's Day and I had to Smile when I thought about your handsome face you were such a mama's boy with that big teddy bear smile of yours always trying to make me laugh with your jokes and you would never wonder far I know you are near to me always but it still hurts that I can not touch you and hug you. I pray to the Loed each day that he will give me strength to understand why this has to be. My son I miss you but I know that you are looking down at me and telling me not to cry but the tears keep falling like the rain from the sky I can not control them today they are more like a storm because I feel the loss so deeply and have no answers but the Lord will come through and bring me peace again I will just wait here patiently until he answers my prayers my son. I know you are with him and asking him to help me with the pain and to show me the way until we are together again. Love Mama...................

I was thinking about you today and it made me smile. You are such a fun person to be around, always finding something to do or say to make me laugh. I still can't believe it, it doesn't seem real.

Brandon you will be missed but not forgotten. I remember chasing you around Auntie nette’s apartment when you had those clunky casts on both your feet, I remember scaring the heck out of you with my Halloween mask and you ran so fast out of my room you ran into auntie Linda’s cabinet and almost knocked yourself out. I remember catching you over and over again as you jumped off the backyard wall on Akeke Pl. As Melissa has said I remember your raspy laugh and we heard it often. Of course I remember busting your lip open going down that hill on the skateboard but we were going down the same hill just a week later. I remember taking you spear fishing way outside at Makaha. I remember how brave you were when we went bodysurfing at big Makapuu and taking off on the biggest set waves and getting barreled together. We would both jump out the water and laugh and hug each other. I remember rough housing with you and always getting the better of you but then that summer I came home from college you were 4 inches taller than me and the tables had turned. While growing up, you always looked up to me and I took that as a huge honor. I will miss you Brandon but you will always be with me.

What a tragic loss, why’d it have to be him?
Only God knows why now, we’re just left here feeling grim.
We all miss him so much, it was such a shock.
It all happened so fast, a call at 1 o’clock.
He was like my little brother, good times and some bad.
But he ALWAYS made me laugh, and now I’m so sad….
To think about that deep raspy laugh that I will never hear again
Just makes my heart fall… someone please explain.
But I know you’re up in Heaven, smiling, looking down on us
Telling us not to cry anymore not to make a fuss….
For you are in a better place, with happiness & no sorrow,
Your prayer for us is that we will have a better tomorrow.
So just know this Brandon Jason Pratt
You are loved and will forever be missed!!

*My last words to Brandon*
Dear Brandon,
I just want you to know that you will always have a place in my heart as you have for 13 years. Even though you are not here with me in flesh I have you in my thoughts, my heart and spirit. We have had a lot of great memories and great times over the years, specials ones that I will always cherish. It's those great times that will get me through, while I know you would not want me to be sad but laugh and and smile in remembrance of your "goofy self." I love you and always will- you where my first love, a love in which is never forgotten.
My promise to you Brandon- I promise to take Tasha under my wing and treat her as my own little sister just like you would want me too. I know how much it means to you to know she is taken care of. You will always be loved, missed and thought about.
Mama, Tasha, and daddy I love you. Just remember that God will help you through these trying times and anything is possible with prayer
Love,
La'Necia, EJ & Christopher!
I LOVE YOU MY SON MAMA
February 27, 2008
To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

God's Love - For God so Loved the World
This is God's love! "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him (John 3:16-17). Jesus Christ loved the world so much that He gave everything for it, from His rights and privileges as the unique eternal Son of God, to His very life! If you want to see the love of God, look to the cross. "This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins" (1 John 4:9-10). "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Romans 6:23).

It was so hard hearing this news about Brandon. He was like a brother to me. All of us had good times together. Can't believe he is gone. Just wanted to let the family know to hang in there. He is looking over all of us now.
