Patrick, I know the feeling of loss however it is something that we each experience in our own way. Words cannot express how sorry I am for your loss. We will forever miss the ability to touch our loved one but they do remain in our hearts and in our thoughts. I will remember Brandon's beautiful smile and his cheerful hello whenever I came into the shop. I hope this gives you some small comfort. Life does go on. Much love.

Dear Brandon,
This morning I woke up to text message informing me of your departure. I am sorry for taking you for granted in that you would always be here when our lives crossed each other again. I am sorry that I stayed away so long. I’m happy to read the many posting left by Patrick, your friends and family. You are so loved.
I want to thank you for walking into my life eighteen years ago in Emporia, Kansas. ...the many laughs and cries we shared. I thank you for standing beside me and walking with me through the tribulations of coming out to my family... thank you for always making me feel as time never stopped when we would see each other…thank you for teaching me, “free to be you, free to be me”. Like it or not an angel in disguise you are. I am happy to see the many lives you touched with your warm smile and strong presence. If you are near my dear friend I love you and you made a difference in my life.
Patrick,
I’m very sorry for your loss but most importantly I am grateful you had the privilege to love Brandon the way he yearned to be loved. I thank you for always making me feel as an extension of you life when we would see each other. You represent everything Brandon lived to be. I am for a loss of words right now but know Patrick you are in my thoughts from this day forward. I only hope your healing process continues by speaking and remembering the great times you had with Brandon. I’d like to meet up with you and catch up please call me at 816-977-5430 my email is [email protected].
All my love,
Jonathan Madrigal

Jamy and I were just talking about you yesterday. We laughed at some of the things we used to do. I started to get sad then. Jamy reminded me that you are in a better place. I don't know about that one. A better place would you being a phone call, short drive or a few clicks away. I miss you, friend. I'll see you again.

Brandon,
MySpace is missing a wonderful person who is surely missed by many. Life goes on for most of us, but the people here on MySpace can be having a normal day and then out of the blue your face pops up on our page. You are on tons of top friends list and it reminds us all that you are no longer with us. :^( I miss your smiling face when you would leave me comments and messages. You touched many peoples lives. Just know that your family and friends think of you every day and you will never be forgotten. Heaven is lucky to have you and I am sure you are entertaining all the angels up there with your great sense of humor...
Miss you buddy,
Hugs, LauraH

Brandon:
One of my dearest friends, I miss you terribly. I still sit on my deck and expect to see you climbing over the fence with your bag of Bud Light. I think of you everytime we have "tornado drama" and remember when Patrick would call us doppler dorks and laugh at us for getting so excited over the weather and putting all our pets in the basement then grabbing the wine. Your laugh could fill the room and make the darkest days brighter. You have a huge heart. Always willing to calm a friend and talk them through a rough situation, and oh yes, offer your advice. We didn't get a chance this summer to put out someone's "torch", I will always keep yours lit. Shelby and I think of you everyday and remember the wild and crazy good times we've had. We will cherish your memory and keep it alive always. Rest in peace my friend!
Love you!
Cheryl and Shelby

Patrick - Sorry this is so late in coming, I just left the salon and am still grief stricken. My heart goes out to you for your loss.
Brandon - What can I say? Why didn't I call you sooner? I never had the pleasure of having a son but when you referred to me as mom it made me smile. You were deeper than most people realized and it makes me so sad that you had so little time here to share your specialness with the world. Remember when you got Holly and we named her together and then when my dog Preppie had to be put to sleep you went with me to have it done and held me while I cried? Why wasn't I there for you now? Please know that I will always hold a special place in my heart for you. I believe you are up there in animal heaven watching out for all our little pets. Peace be with you - Love, Mary

I don't know were to start to say I am so sorry that Brandon is not here with us anymore. I didn't know him very long but long enough to realize what a loving person he was. I met Brandon on stickam when all the BBHeaven was trying to figure out how to use it. It was great when he would be like "help me I don't get this." Then he would keep me up for hours to talk and not let me go to sleep. Then he would always say "we have to be quick Patrick is going to hear us." This is just some of the memories I have with Brandon. He talked about how he been to Arizona and how he loved it and wanted to come visit again and meet me. I am really sad that he wasn't able to do that, but now he is up in heaven looking down on all of us in every single state there is were he has friends.
I just want to tell Patrick that I am so sorry for your loss and I know what it is like to loose a love one. He loved you so much and never stopped talking about you.
Patrick and family will always be in my prayers and my God and Brandon look over you to help you heel through this hard time.
Love ya Brandon and miss you so much... MUAH!!!!XOXOXOXOXOXO

Please don’t stand beside my grave and weep
For I am not there you see
Please don’t fret over the past and the future
For you’re love I will forever keep
Please don’t cry for me, but rather cry for your loss
And cry so that you may let go
And cry for the one’s that don’t cry at all
And cry so that you may cry no more.
You have to remember that I am not gone
I will live forever in glee
In freedom of pain and heart aches of sorts
And I await to see you again with me
But before I end this I will be happy to say
That I love you, I love you so much
And instead of giving out “sorry’s” and sadness
Give out hugs and kisses a bunch
And always remember that I’m still here
Watching were ever you go
But atlas I’m free of my suffering
And I’ll live forever and more.

I was the luckiest person alive to have been blessed to have have had you as "my bestest friend", as we would say, for nearly 20 years.
My mind is filled with so many memories that will take me through the years. Not a day will pass where I will not think of you, but I have comfort knowing that without a doubt, you will watch over me, Hailee, and Ricky. I promise to you, I will take care of Patrick. I know you would want that.
When I looked behind me last night as we sat in the service remembering you, I could hear your voice saying
"Wow Heathy, they really did like me!" I wish you could have realized in life just how much were loved. You made people laugh, you were beautiful.
When the "weather drama" comes, I will always think of you and I and how worked up we liked to get each other over the storms. Just one of many things that will make me think of you. There are too many to list.
Thank you for being my bestest friend, thank you for loving me unconditionally,thank you for being Uncle Brandon to Hailee and Ricky, thank you for your laughter, your smile, thank you just being the beautiful person you were. My life will never be the same without you in it, but I know we will meet again someday and our souls will always be connected.
Goodnight my love, may your soul be at peace.
I love you eternally,
Heather Ames

My sympathies to the families and most of all to Patrick who believed whole-heartedly in the love and total devotion they shared with one another. Brandon was an icon in many of our lives and we should never forget the life that he always brought to the party – even when the party was just a phone call or hanging out in the salon. His dramatic flair and colorful expressions will be always be missed but not forgotten. May we all, in some small way, keep his spirit alive in everything we do.

Brandon,
I know i signed this already but tonight was all about you:) So I felt the need to write once more. i feel that tonight would have made you very happy. I wore a skirt and heels for you as promised. I wore the necklace that you and Patrick gave me and even took a sip of Budlight just for you. The amount of people tonight was amazing. You truelly left your mark on a lot of lives my dear friend. A friend of yours stopped me tonight and told me some very nice things that you had said about me and I was able to then have peace. I know you have been with me through out the last couple days because all of the songs that would remind me of you, songs we would belt out in the car together came on. You have a whole HUGE party all about you. You are so loved Brandon and were so deserving of today. And by the way you never take a bad picture!!! I miss you Brandon Shane. Glad I could spend my day sifting through our memories and boy do we have a lot. You have reminded me of the important things in life. I love you my friend.

Dear Patrick, we are so very sad... we read through so many of the loving messages here and have few words to add... yet so much love and caring to share. So many years for you, Brandon, and Steph! And almost as many for Natalie to be honored to know the both of you... you showed us such enthusiasm and support for bringing Issa into our lives. You both lived a vivacious and playful life together and still bring smiles to our faces with thoughts of your laughter.
We only hope you can find the comfort and love and support with all those who love you. You have our utmost caring in this time of grief. Brandon will always shine on.
Much love to all those touched by Brandon, his family and friends, his pets and most deeply to Patrick.
Blessings,

To Brandon: It is in these moments that the memories we have flood my mind. I wish that time would have allowed more words. You are missed by many! You are an unforgetable friend. I find myself at a loss for words, it is impossible to fit Brandon Shane into a paragraph. There are so many memories. Everytime I get in my car I am reminded of you:) The lectures on my driving skills and adventures around town. I will never forget you.
To: Patrick
Great amounts of sympathy to you. In your time of grief try to feel and embrace the warmth that surrounds you. Your friends and family are only a phone call away. You know me I'm not the best with words but do know that you are very loved. The memories we share together are what keep Brandon with us always. Take care of yourself. Love you

To Brandon's Family, I met Brandon about 1 year and a half a ago, but I feel like I've always known him. What a great guy! I will miss his huge smile- grinning from ear to ear. We could always find lots of things to make each other chuckle and laugh about. I am grateful to have those memories of him with me. His presence will be greatly missed.
And To Patrick, I am at a loss for words to comfort you. I thoroughly enjoyed the time we've spent together and watching both of you singing and dancing. Brandon is, and will always be beside you. His young, playful spirit will follow us where ever we are. Please know that you are in my prayers.

Patrick, words cannot express the heartache I feel for you. This all feels so surreal, and I don't think I've truly comprehended that Brandon is gone. I can still hear that infamous cackle of his and see his beautiful face and not-so-beautiful (but hilarious) gestures. He was truly a unique person, and I will deeply miss everything about him--his outgoing and accepting nature, commanding presence, sharp wit and often twisted sense of humor, and depth of emotion. No one has ever offended me the way he has yet still managed to be so incredibly charming. You and he have been the brothers I never had, and I love you both dearly. Please know that I am and always will be here for you. You and yours are in my thoughts and prayers. Love, Annie

I am still the same ol Brandon. Patrick. I am so sorry for your loss..Your in my thoughts and prayers.

Crossing the Bar
Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,
But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep
Turns again home.
Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;
For tho' from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crost the bar.

Brandon was the greatest friend you could ever have. I met him on Stickam, and he changed my life. He would warm you heart with his presence everytime he came in the room. Though I never met him personally, I still love him with all my heart. Even tho we lived an hour apart, i regret never going to go visit him when i had the chance.
My thoughts & prayers go out to Patrick & family. Im here if you need anything...and I mean ANYTHING!!
Love & Miss you like crazy Brandon!!

To my dear Patrick, I am so sorry about losing Brandon. I wish I could endure some of the pain to ease yours. You know how much I loved Brandon and how he made me laugh. I will miss his hugs and "I love you(s)" each time we saw each other. Please know that Brandon is safe in God's arms and is at peace. God bless you Patrick and all of Brandon's family. With love, Barb

My dear, dear Patrick,
I can't begin to express in words what my heart feels for you and for Brandon's family and friends. Keep the good memories close in these dark days. Tell the stories, cry and laugh. With that might the healing begin.
With much love,
Vanessa

How do I start to understand the monumental hurt anyone who ever met Brandon is now going through. They say time heals all but from other past cases in my life it only makes it more bearable and it never seems to make the next situation one bit easier. Anyone who reads these passages knows how lucky we were to have crossed paths with someone so special. He could be the first person you noticed when entering a room or the last, depending on his mood, sometimes quiet but most often bubbling with smiles and laughter. If you were having a bad day it went away instantly, Brandon would be himself and it would be gone. He is one of a kind and we will all miss him in our own way. I always looked forward to seeing him, he always made me laugh and made each meeting a special memory. I wish I had some magic words for all his family and friends but there are none. Please call when you need a ear to listen or a shoulder to cry on and you will never be alone. All our love Patrick from yours and Brandons' Uncle Donald and family.

Dear Husband,
There is a void in my heart that has a heavy feeling on me. I can't ever explain how I feel about you or how I will always think about you, and "us" and our long life together.
I'm in the place where I feel closest to you. "You and I" are everywhere and some time, some place we will reunite as soul partners.
You were the most magical spirit around me ever. You made me laugh even when no one else could. You always struck everyone's eye when you walked in a room. Your looks, your charisma, and your charm would always win over people's hearts.
I love you and will miss you forever and I am so lost without you!!!!!!!!!! oxoxox

Brandon, You will be missed by many people. You've crossed over and your soul will not be bothered or worried about anything. You are now free. When my time comes, be there for me. We've talked about everything. We've had our ups and downs. We consoled one another. You truly have a kindred soul. I will think of you often. You have the most tender soul of anybody. See you on the other side. Be free. - Karen

Dear Gary, Pat & Patrick......There aren't enough words to describe Brandon's sweet and loving personality. Though, I've never met him in person, I cherish knowing him as an internet friend. He always spoke highly of his parents and partner. He will be missed truly!!

It's so hard to put so many memories into one paragraph.. I met Brandon when I was 17...Very close to his family and him. He was a kindred spirit and the one who brought laughter into any situation.
He is missed........

Trying to find the words to say for someone who touched my life in 1 yr but made us all feel like we knew him forever..is easy to do when we are talking about Brandon..I met when he started playing my Big Brother Fantasy Game OHHHH and believe ME this man was NO pushover! He won my heart the first time I saw his picture...I didn't even look at his application for the game I just said .......OK...HES PLAYIN!! We became very good friends had many nights on "stickam" where we just laughed and enjoyed each others company. As for all of us from BBHeaven we send our sincere condolences to his family and friends. God Blessed us by letting us get the fortunate chance of having his friendship for 1 short year. I am thankful for that. Grateful to have got the chance to know Brandon. He will be forever missed and always loved. God Bless Your Family
