I'd like to offer my condolences to Brandon's mother, his Father Jermaine and also the rest of Brandon's family. I had the pleasure to have coached Brandon for a team called the Columbus Heat in the year of 2003. Brandon was one of the few young men that I've coached who was very well mannered, respectful very coachable. He grew to be a very good Wide Receiver and athlete in general. He was also friends with my sons prior to that and remained one after. I'm deeply saddened to hear of Brandon's passing. ~ Coach Dee and Family, Columbus, Ohio.

To the family and friends of Brandon. Brandon was like one of my older brother's. He was very caring, kind, loving, funny as all get out, and a true beast in basketball. He will be truly missed. I went to FCI Academy with Brandon and he will be truly missed. You all will forever be in my thoughts and prayers. Just remember the Word of God says in Psalm 30:5 " For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning." Sending my condolences to you, Erica Paige
