Mr. Brandon was one of the finest men I have ever had the privilege of knowing. His integrity and wisdom have shaped many lives, including mine. I worked for him at Glenn High School and I learned so much about life, education and how to treat people by his example. He has always had my utmost respect.

RIP Sir. You gave me some advice on life about 50 years ago, and I still remember it well. Thanks for trying to lead me in the correct path.
