You will never be forgotten. I love you, man.

5 years (and 1 day) and I still think of you often, BS. I hope you're ripping apples in half and making alkali metals catch on fire wherever you are.

It's been almost four years, and I still feel the pain of when I first found out. I wish we would have been closer. I remember thinking I hadn't seen you around the ARC campus in while- our paths used to cross in between classes a couple times a week. I remembering joking about stuff all the way from freshman year English at El Camino while we sat in senior year American Government.
I really miss you Brandon. You were a huge impact on my life and I wish I had told you sooner.

Thinking about you today! I tried to solve an rubiks cube- cant figure it out. Probably should have paid more attention to you in Mr. Kellers. I really wish you were still here with us.

Youve been missed for a year and you will be missed for many on. I hope you are living well in Heaven

Dear Brandon,
I'm so sorry that this happened and you will be truly missed I've honestly been thinking about you lately, you were so loved and our friendship was one I'll remember always it was crazy and started out rough, but as we grew into seniors we became closer and it is one relationship I will truly cherish, rest well my friend.
Fly on to victory, on green and white...

I never expected someone I know who's so young, smart, and has so many friends to ever have such a tragedy befall them. It really is unfortunate for Brandon. Even though I only knew him for one year, anyone can see that his bright and talented self was going places. He will be missed.

Lacy, John and sister,
I am heartbroken to hear of Brandon's passing. He was such a delightful young man. He was very loved and cherished by many. May you find comfort in knowing he is with God and and any challenges for him have been released. You all are in my prayers and thoughts

Brandon always had our group in stitches whenever he sat with us, like when set lithium on fire or when we all were cracking jokes while we watched the Force Awakens. I am so sorry for your lost, and no matter what he will always be fondly remembered as my twin brother. Rest in peace friend, I miss you.

God created you in his image and loves you unconditionally. Your smile, infectious laughter, and sense of humor will be missed. There will only ever be one Brandon Lilly, and we'll miss him greatly. I'll meet you at the gates, my friend.
