I only had a couple days i actually talked to you at work, i'm sorry i didn't take the time to ask what's up, more often. The couple times i saw you and talked to you, you were full of life, full of energy, and ready to take on the world. My family shall keep you and your family in our prayers. RIP "BUD" Wish i could have had the chance to get to know you.

Bud you will be missed very much. I recall so many memories of you from middle and high school. We chatted on MSN instant messanger for years. You were a riot. Always had an opinion and could always make me smile. Thank you for always being yourself. My prayers are with your family and friends.

I'll never forget all the fun times that Bud and I had together. I hope that is what stays with you guys through all this. Jamming together in the barn, and somehow convincing Scott to take us to Ozzfest one year are two of my favorites, although there are too many to list. Scott and Lori, you guys were like my second parents through my teenage years, you always welcomed me into your home with a smile. If I can help in any way, please don't hesitate to ask.

I'd have to say my most memorable time with bud and the rest of the family would of been out at their place. All the fun we had out there at their pool and even messing with the animals. The funniest thing ever was when I reaching through the fence to pet the horse and to this day I still dont know who threw the rock from the patio at me but I will find out :). (Some may say it was the electric fence but I know the truth it was a rock) My prayers go out to you guys, Uncle Scott & Aunt Lori and Bri. If you need anything please shoot me an e-mail or give me a call. Brandon will be missed deeply.

Love,
Ryan & Marie
