BM!! Dang man!! It's crazy you left so soon, but it's all a part of God's plan right? It sucks that we procrastinated for so long to do a song together, but until we meet in heaven I'll be thinkin' of a raw hook & we'll make a song when I get there! God bless your family through this rough time, I know you'll watch over all of them, and Brooke as well. Rest in paradise babe!

Brandon was my first TRUE Love, & no one will ever take that place in my heart. He saved me from a lot, he taught me to be so much more thankful for the things & people God has blessed me with in my life. He gave me the best years of my life throughout our whole relationship. No matter what we ever went through, he was always there for me & made sure I knew he loved me so much, & i did. He was the most caring, loving, down to earth, & REALest person you could ever know. I'll never find another like him. Ima always cherish every single moment I got to spend with my boo. So, I thank God that he blessed me with Brandon, & his family. Brandon Michael will always be with us in spirit. We'll see him again one day. Just keep a close relationship with God & you will stay strong. Brandon's my angel & ima Love him forever.

Here I am thinking about what to write about my brother and it's hard because Brandon was a different type of person. He cared about everybody. He just had different ways of expressing his love. Sometimes he was hard on me and other times he was soft and calm, but it was based on the situation that determined which way he acted, but I know with all my heart that he loves me. And I love him too. I thank God for allowing me to see him forever in the future because I'll rather see him forever then see him for 21 years and that's only possible through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savor!!!!

A poem for Brandon's family...The Broken Chain.....You didn't not know that morning that God was going to call his name. In life you loved him dearly, in death you'll do the same. It broke your hearts to lose him...he did not go alone; for part of you went with him, the day God called him home. He left you peaceful memories, his love is still your guide;and though you cannot not see him, he's always at your side. Your family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same; but as God calls you one by one, the chain will link again. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Torri

BOBBY & KIYAN -

THE SPIRIT ITSELF BEARETH WITNESS WITH OUR SPIRIT, THAT WE ARE THE CHILDREN OF GOD. AND IF CHILDREN, THEN HEIRS, HEIRS OF GOD, AND JOIN-HEIRS WITH CHRIST, IF SO BE THAT WE SUFFER WITH HIM, THAT WE MAY BE ALSO GLORIFIED TOGETHER. FOR I RECKON THAT THE SUFFERINGS OF THIS PRESENT TIME ARE NOT WORTHY TO BE COMPARED WITH THE GLORY WHICH SHALL BE REVEALED IN US.

PEACE & LOVE

Robbie & I have lifted you and your family up in prayer many times over the past several days. I pray you will feel the "nearness" of God during this time and will feel the peace that only He can give. What a wonderful joy it is to know that Brandon is in His presence and is cheering you on as you continue to live your life here on this earth for Jesus Christ. We love you and will continue to pray for you and your family. Please know we're here if you need us.
