No mother should ever have to bury her child. It's just not natural, fair, or right. The way my beloved son was taken from me, his family, and friends is both tragic and heroic. Please take a moment to view the memories of my son to the left of the page. The heartbreaking loss of my son and the heroic thing he did for me can be read about in the section to the left under OUR HERO!! Please take a moment to see my son, a brother, and a friend first to see who this very special and brave young man was and still is to me and so many other people. TO THE WORLD YOU MAY HAVE BEEN ONLY ONE PERSON...BUT TO ME YOU WERE, ARE, AND WILL ALWAYS BE THE WORLD!!!!!

I RECENTLY FOUND THIS PICTURE OF ME AND BRANDON WHILE AT A FAMILY PICNIC AT THE CLEVELAND ZOO. HE IS 10 YEARS OLD IN THIS PICTURE. I HAD TO ADD THIS PICTURE TO THE FIRST PAGE OF HIS MEMORIAL, BECAUSE IT HOLDS VERY SPECIAL MEMORIES OF TIME SPENT WITH HIM. YOU WILL FIND THIS PICTURE THROUGHOUT HIS MEMORIAL.

> PLEASE JUST LET ME CRY Please don't ask me if I am over it yet. I'll never be over it. Please, don't tell me he is in a better place. He isn't here with me. Please don't say, at least he isn't suffering. I haven't come to terms with why he had to suffer at all. Please, don't tell me you know how I feel, unless you have lost a child. Please, don't ask me if I feel better. Bereavement isn't a condition that clears up. Please, don't tell me at least you had him for so long. What year would you choose for your child to die? Please, don't tell me God never gives us more than we can bear. Please, just tell me you are sorry. Please, just say you remember my son, if you do. Please, mention his name. Please, just let me cry

This is the message I had placed on the back window of my car. To forever memorialize my beloved Brandon.

THERE IS NO GREATER PAIN THAN LOSING A CHILD. THE BEST ANYONE CAN DO FOR A BEREAVED PARENT IS TO LISTEN. DON'T GIVE US ADVICE OR SAY YOU UNDERSTAND BECAUSE YOU DON'T. DON'T TELL US ITS TIME TO MOVE ON OR THEY ARE IN A BETTER PLACE. AND PLEASE DON'T COMPARE THE DEATH OF ANOTHER FAMILY MEMBER TO THE DEATH OF ONE'S CHILD-IT IS NOT THE SAME. JUST LISTEN TO US AND LOVE US BECAUSE WE ARE DIFFERENT NOW....

BRANDON LIVED HIS LIFE BY THIS RULE AND ALTHOUGH THERE WERE TIMES WHEN I GOT ON HIM ABOUT LIFE NOT BEING ONE BIG PARTY. THAT SOMETIMES LIFE WAS TO BE TAKEN SERIOUS, HE NEVER LISTENED TO THAT (THANK GOD) BECAUSE HE ALWAYS DID WHAT MADE HIM HAPPY, WAS WITH THOSE WHO MADE HIM SMILE, HE LAUGHED WITH EVERY BREATH HE TOOK, AND HE LOVED AS LONG AND AS SHORT AS HE LIVED!!!
