Bags. I still think about you. You show up in my dreams sometimes and it's generally heartbreaking. I'm sorry I wasn't there for you in the end. I hope you have found peace.

I have so many memories of Brandon, he was literly the nices person I have ever met. I know I will never know anyone like him in my life again. I loved watching him in the plays at G.C.H., he loved being on stage. He was so alive, so funny. We used to go walking at garden city park, we would talk and talk. Just Brandon and I went to Greenfeild village together,one bueatiful summer day. It was one of the best days of my life. I loved talking to him, he would talk about the life he wanted. Sometimes I think he was telling me the life he knew I wanted for him, because he knew he was never going to have that life. I still can't belive he is gone, I miss him so much, it is a hurt that never leaves. But I thank God everyday that I had him for 25 years, and I will see him again!!
The one thing I miss most about Brandon was his sense of humor. When I first came to G.C. he was one of the first people I met. He was such a great guy who always mamde me laugh. We would see each other in the hallwall and he would yell "Wassup K" and I would yell back "Wassup B." Brandon taught me to always smile and for him I always will. To Brandon's family and friends I am so sorry about your lost. Brandon was a great person and his spirit will forever live on. Luv ya B.
The things that I remember most are all of the inside jokes that we shared. Over the years there came to be so many. I miss those things most because those are the things I can't ever have again. But I remember them all the time and smile. I watched the tape of us doing the play "Grease" and there is this moment at the end where I am holding his face and we are laughing. We really aren't paying attention to what was going on with the show. We were just having a moment to ourselves and having a great time. I laugh all by myself and I can hear Brandon laughing with me. When he would laugh, his whole face would laugh with him...those eyebrows! Anyone who ever saw him laugh knows what I am talking about. He was so special and he made me feel special. I loved him for that.
Brandon and I both graduated in 1999, other than passing each other in the halls, occasionally saying hello or hanging out at parties, we weren't the closest friends. There is a memory that I wanted to post about Brandon because it's one that sticks out vividly when I thinnk of him.
Do you all remember the talent show at GCHS when Brandon did the old man who said "you're gonna live in a van down by the river?" HILARIOUS!!! I have never laughed so hard. I swear, that was one of the funniest memories I have from all four years of high school. Brandon always had a way of lighting up a room and making people laugh. Everyone loved having classes with Brandon because he made the school hour fly by.
To his family and close friends, my condolences. I cannot imagine losing someone so great, so young. My prayers and thoughts are with you all.
