I didn't know Brandon personally... I am a friend/co-worker to his Aunt Alina.
She spoke so much about him and from what she said he was a very special person; I felt like I knew him.
Even though he is not physically here, I feel he will always be with those he loved and was close to.
He is now one of God's Angels!

Scotty, Susan, Olivia and Madelyn - the sorrow in my heart for you all knows no definition. I have been around the warrior spirit of Scotty enough to know that Brandon fought tooth and nail. My family grieves with yours - we offer you all the love we can muster to help you work your way back to the light. God Bless Brandon and all the joy he has created in his nineteen years - and the lifetime of memories he has inspired in you all. He remains a son and brother - that can never be relinquished. - Nick Peters and Family
