He was an independent contractor who was becoming a skilled craftsman working alongside his father specializing in whole house cabinetry, and fine woodworking. 

Brandon was very polite, respectful, and kind, with a willingness to help anyone in need.  He loved deeply and we wholeheartedly loved him back.  He enjoyed the outdoors, camping, fishing, and hiking, particularly with his fiancée and friends and family.  He also liked classic cars, watching movies and listening to music of all types. He was also exploring his Christianity and his relationship with God.

We will keep him in our hearts and miss his caring nature.  May God keep him and love him as deeply as his family and friends do.
