Was one of my closest friends, even if we never met in person. It's been 4 years, and yet I still remember all those good memories of us talking and collaborating in our own projects. He was fun to be around and joke with. My only regret was not being able to say goodbye.
Miss you, Braden. Hope you're resting well.

We may have fought from time to time, but now after maturing my only regret is how I treated him. He was a good man that made a lot of people happy, including me. I can't take back how I treated him, but I can atone by giving him the appreciation and respect he deserves. Rest in peace Braden, you're a good kid.

I knew Braden through Skype under the name "Thomas", he was a nice guy who made our days better by expressing joy and being a funny dude.

He was a fan of Mega Man, Pokemon, Roblox, Undertale, Thomas the Tank Engine, and Gravity Falls. And he expressed great interest in those franchises as we did.

His most notable contribution for me was voice acting for a joke video i made years ago, and i believe its through that video, sitting at 400k views, is how most people know him as.

He has affected the lives of many through his charm, and i'll make sure he's never forgotten.

I may be very late, but I have to say something. As previously said before by Braven, we used to call him by his internet username "Thomas". If it were not for him I wouldn't have been inspired to find my place in the group like him. He was one of my greatest friends.

R.I.P to the original Egghead.

Ive never met this kid. Didnt know who he was till today. I was walking through the cemetery hes at, and I saw his grave. Saw the picture and decided to sit and talk. I came across this website trying to seek more information. Although I dont know him, from what I can see he seemed like a such a kind and sweet guy. I wouldve loved to have known him. I hope hes doing well up there.

I knew him for a long time on Roblox. We all referred to him by his username "Thomas". I miss him so dearly, it wasn't till October until our group found out what happened. Everyone here misses him to this day, and we've made several memorials to him in our games. Rest in peace, my friend.

Braden was my only grandson and my wife and myself had lots of love to give to him. I taught him to spell and write his name by the time he was 3 yrs. old. He was very bright and loving and our time spent with him during his life will never be forgotten. I Am sure he is with his grandmother Compton having a great conversation
in heaven.

Was such a great and vocal kid online, its a damn shame he passed. His games gave motivation and an eventual career on ROBLOX to hundreds of people. As someone who's seen him grow online when he was just a beginner in our community, he was able to create a charismatic personality. Loved the kid. Rest easy buddy.

I used to talk to this guy constantly, back in the year of 2016 to 2018, till he sorta disappeared, He was cool, We'd have conversations about games coming later, and a bunch of things we'd do, whenever roblox was somewhat understandable. Eventually i stopped hearing from him and this recently came to my attention, Great guy, But this was something that sorta broke me. RIP.

Didn't know him in real life, but was a friend online for a few years. May he R.I.P.

My heart is breaking to learn of Braden's passing at such a young age. What a handsome young man. I watched Braden grow from the first grade through the 7th. What a special young man. He was so blessed to have such wonderful grandparents in Guy and Jeanne. I, like Debbie Scheiman, remember the first grade year with a special place in my heart for Braden and his grandparents. I wish I could hug you right now. May God comfort and bless you! Please call me.

I first met Braden when he entered my first grade classroom at Trinity Lutheran School.Braden loved school and loved to learn. He would come into class every morning with a big, beautiful, bright smile on his face. One of my favorite memories of him is at Christmas time that year. We were having Polar Express Day and Braden loved trains!! When the day finally arrived, Braden was first in line to hand me his "train ticket". His excitement was just shining from his eyes. When the day was ending, Braden gave me a big hug and told me, "This was the best day ever". What wonderful memories we made that year. He will always be in my heart. The Lord has a brand new angel now, I know Braden"s eyes are just shining with that excitement!!

My deepest sympathies go out to you and your family. May God take Braden into his keeping and surround him with peace and love.

Braden was loved even by family he had never met. A time to rejoice that he is healthy, happy, laughing, surrounded by friends and a wonderful grandmother and our Lord Jesus Christ, his heavenly father.
