I just want to say that BP was like one of my sons, I would always tell him he reminded me of my youngest brother, and I’m gonna miss seeing at work and hearing him fussing. It is so hard for our little crew ( Ms. Cynthia, Miss. Audrey, Little Mama(Rebecca), and Antonio) to believe that our little guy is gone so soon. He was a great carrying person, he was hard working and an all around good guy. We Love and will Miss you Brendan (BP) ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Brendan was a wonderful student who worked hard, was always polite, and knew how to put a smile on the faces of those around him. My heart breaks for his school friends and family.
