I am a friend of Candy Mathis and she has told me wonderful things about Brandon. I told her just last night that he seemed to live his life for The Lord and did great work on earth thru him! I can only imagine the guardian angel he will be working beside our Father in Heaven! I am praying for each of you that God will surround you in comfort during this time! When times get hard just look up because I know Brandon will always be watching over you!
