Brandon was a fun kid to have in class and he always talked to me about his Aunt Tangee. When he wrote in class it was most generally about cars and trucks and how to fix them. I learned a lot from Brandon and his smile and laughter brightened my room. Praying for you all. May you find comfort in the wonderful memories you have of such a sweet young man.

I will always remember Brandon as the little kid coming into the Catawba store when I worked there. However, my best memories are of the great friend he was to my brother. He taught Dylan so much and vice versa. He was always there for him and my cousin Ian and always helped my family out. He was just at my house Friday to help my mom and I. I will never forget how he teased my dad. He will be greatly missed. My heart breaks for his family and close friends. Rest in Peace dear Brandon.
