I’ll have to remember you for longer than I’ve known you, and I don’t think I’ll ever come to terms with that.
Happy 50th birthday to the most beautiful angel

Brandy,
I know that you were always filled with light and laughter! So from now on when I see a picture with you in it or I think of you, I will think of the sleep over that we spent together with Samantha too and I will also think about how you always look at the bright side of every situation! I love you and always will!

To the Kubik family:
i know it has been some time, but i was looking for someone on the gues books and i came to Brandy's name. I was and am in shock. i worked with her at pennys and she instantly became my friend. she made me laugh and was the most kind hearted person. Through the years, i ran into her at some bars or even at cloverbank school. she always remembered me and gave me big hugs. i am so sorry for your loss. i know it has been some time, but i just wanted to let you know Brandy touched my life too... God bless......

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Dear Kubik Family,
Brandy & I were good friends in grade school but with the exception of having a few classes together in high school sort of went our seperate ways. Nevertheless, the times we spent together when we were kids are still in my heart. I remember the birthday slumber parties and having the kind of fun that only little girls can have! She was a beautiful person inside & out. The news of her passing was a shock. I am certain she will be forever missed.

I am so sorry to hear of Brandy's passing. Having 3 children of my own I know how hard it has to be for you. I know Brandy has been sick for some time, but that doesn't make it any easier. Through it all she always had a smile on her face and a kind heart. She put everyone else's needs ahead of her own. She was a great friend and I was blessed to have known her. I regret not being there for her these past years, but a family of my own needed taking care of. I'll always remember the good times with Chip and Dale, Blasdell Pizza and Mickey Rats. Glod bless you and you're family at this difficult time and if there's anything I can do to help please don't hesitate to ask.

Uncle Joey and Aunt Jane,
Brandy will always be a rainbow in my heart. She was "light", love, and laughter. She inspires me everyday to see the humorous side of any situation. Her smile will live in my heart the rest of my life. God blessed us for 33 years. I love you all. Brandy I miss you! Love, your California Cousin

Dearest Jane, Joe & Deanna,
As long as we know, this is only a temporary "good bye", we can bear it. Brandy was called to our home by our Loving Father. He sent His only begotten son, Jesus Christ to earth 2000 years ago. Therefore we will all live again. Brandy is home with some other dear family members. Our circle will be unbroken some day. I love you all so much.

I was saddened to here about Brandy. Upon reading her name, a vivid picture of her bright smile, twinkling eyes and round cheeks flashed in my memory. In the background I could hear the laughter of family gathered at Christmas time in Grand Aunt Sis' house and all the good food we shared as a family. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Hugs from across the ocean.

I have known Brandy for the last few years and I can say I have never met a more warm-hearted person. If it was getting together for Movie/Game night or watching a Sabres game/Nascar race or going out for a night on the town Brandy made everything more enjoyable. She was a sweetheart and a true friend. Brandy is in our thoughts and prayers... We will miss you and that smile that would light up the room.. God Bless this true angel.

I have great fond memories of Brandy. I only knew her for a short period of time, but she was a great friend. We always had a great time at work, and even better outside of work.

Brandy was always a shining light in any situation. Her face was always adorned with a smile. Last year Brandy was my autograph chasing buddy at the Pepsi Center before a Sabres Alumni Event. She carried a puck while I had my hockey helmet. If I remember it right she grabbed an autograph from Ric Martin. We both we like little kids chasing former Sabres. We had alot of fun. Brandy I will miss you very much as we all will. Thank you for always smiling and having such an upbeat outlook on life.
Love Cousin Jamey

I would like to extend my sincere condolences to you all. I only knew Brandy for a short time but in that time I saw a very sweet loving person. She made me smile when I saw her. She was a very couragous person. I also know that her Aunt Margaret has greeted her with open arms. Joyce ;-)
