Brandon and I went to school in Samoa together. One thing that I remember was Brandon talking about his dreams. He dreamed of emursing himself in Japanese culture, and meeting beautiful Japanese women. 
     We once saw our classmate surfing some Samoan waves very well. Later that night he proclaimed that he had been inspired and would also one day be a talented surfer. I know now these things became reality for Brandon along with, Im sure many other dreams. That is what it is to really live. 
            He was younger than most of us, yet most looked up to him. This guy was special for sure. The anniversary of your death has just passed and its been 5 years. This life has been filled with adventure and unforeseen twists and turns. Im glad I knew you bro. Till we meet again. Charlie 

I remember meeting Brandon for the first time in the lobby at Microvision when he was about 12 years old.  He was incredibly charming, handsome and infatuated with skate boarding. He made quite an impression on me. I wish your family peace and comfort during this difficult time.

Although I had never had the honor of meeting Brandon, I offer my deepest and most heartfelt condolences.  May you and your family find the strength and peace to get through this difficult time.

My Deepest Condolences to you and your family.

My sincere condolences; I know Brandon will be missed.  Wishing you peace and courage.

Keeping you and your family in our thoughts and prayers.

Condolences to you and your family. There is a new Angel in Heaven by the name of Brandon.

Empty-handed I entered the world, 
Barefoot I leave it.
My coming, my going--
Two simple happenings
That got entangled.
--Kozan Ichikyo

Wishing you joy in celebrating Brandon's life, and peace in your time of loss.
--Melanie Kitzan

Brandon was an extraordinary spirit, quick to smile and always keen for adventure.  It seems unfair that he's not still with us... and very, very sad.

Brandon and I went to HPU together and we were also roommates.  I remember Brandon  teaching me how to pick up  classy Japanese girls. When he finally received his driving permit in Hawaii, while using my mini van I taught him how to drive. It seems like it was just yesterday.  I love you to death Brandon and my life will never be the same without you.  Ohana for Life! Aloha

We Are so very sorry for your loss. You are in our prayers, Please let us know if you need anything.

My Sincerest condolences, You are in our prayers

Our thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.

We have fond memories of Brandon when he was a classmate of our son, Joseph, at Villa, and Suheyl coached him in soccer. He was such a wonderfully spirited individual. We are very sorry to hear of your loss, and our thoughts are with you at this sad and difficult time.

I am so sorry to hear the news.  I will always remember Brandon with a devilish smile and a twinkle in his eye.  And I still crack up when I tell the story about the time he tried to write a letter to Casey and me when he was about 6 or 7 using a swear word that he couldn't spell - we couldn't decide whether to laugh or to scold (once we figured out what he was trying to spell phonetically).  You're all in my thoughts.  Wishing you peace.

Brandon was a huge part of my life and like a brother to my boys.  He will be greatly missed.  My memories are great, one of the last is rafting down a river in Montana with Brandon and Robert on a hot summer day.  I will cherish the many memories forever.

My deepest sympathy to all of Brandon's family.

There are no words that can capture the situation and feelings properly, however, we were very sorry to hear of the loss of Brandon and offer our condolences.

We are thinking of you and your family with deepest sympathy in this time of loss.

It's so hard to say goodbye, especially to those we love, especially for one so young.  I never saw your face but somehow I still can't stop crying, just from hearing your story.  Just from seeing your mark on those who knew you.  Lots of us who work where I do seem to feel the same.  But from where I sit this life looks very short and very sweet, a stroll along a flowered lane between before and after.  And so I will look forward to meeting you, little brother, soon enough.

My sincerest condolences to you all. Peace be with you.

Praying for strength, peace and comfort for you and your family.

Surfing the waves in beautiful places with a big smile. That sounds wonderful. I wish peace for all of you now.
