Sending my heartfelt condolences to the family. I didnt know Brandon but recall seeing him around often. I cried when I saw the news that morning as I got ready for work. Then later that day my grandmother & my mother informed me that Brandon was my cousin (mothers side). I was overwhelmed with sadness once again. All over Facebook and Instagram people were speaking highly of him, about how good of a person he was. A person I never got to know. Family and friends, I am so sorry for your loss. May The Most High comfort you, grant you peace, and strength during your time of bereavement! Peace and Love.
