Hey Brandy..was just thinking about you...

April 4, 2007

Still missing you, buddy. I just read where Gabby joined you about 6 weeks ago. Man, I remember the fun you and I had messing with her with my old laser pointer. You and I would make her run after that thing for hours and laugh like idiots. I remember that one part in Billy Madison where the doorbell rang and she'd start barking her head off thinking someone was at the door. As many times as we rewound that part to get her to bark, it's a wonder we didn't break that tape. As soon as we got done laughing about that, we'd start doing our "Bushwackers" imitation and get her riled up so she'd run all over the house. Man, those were some great times.
I really thank you for bringing Gabby with you when you moved in with me and for you training her and raising her so well. If you hadn't, I may not have gotten my dog after you moved out and I cannot imagine life without Krypto. I remember when I brought Krypto over to your house after you first got it and we had those two running all over the place playing. I wish we would've had more days like that, buddy.
As much as I hate the thought of Gabby having passed away, I have to smile at the thought of the two of you together again. Give her a rub on the belly for me.

Rest in peace Brandy. Let your brothers and sisters in blue take the watch from here.

Don't think of him as gone away
His journey's just begun
Life holds so mant facets
This earth is only one.

Just think of him as resting
from the sorrows and the tears
in a place of warmth and comfort
where there are no days or years.

Think how he must be wishing
that we could know today
how nothing but sadnes
can really pass away.

And think of him as living
in the hearts of those he touched
for nothing loved is ever lost
and HE was LOVED so much!

Dear Brandy I never knew you personally but my brother did and I know your brother Corey. I have always felt for your family and remember how senseless your death was everyday when I look at my in memory of you ribbon on my car. You made sure my brother made it home safely alot and for that I am grateful if not for your good natured heart I may not have a brother today like your family no longer has you. God bless all of those who you were dear to and your boys.

Bran - So Gabby finally found you. She has looked for you since the day you left us. I'm sure she will be so happy to see you. I was just loving on her the other day because she was always climbing up on me whenever I came over. We know she is happy and doesn't have to continue her search any longer, now you have your furry little buddy to keep you company. The boys are taking it well. Miss you so much.

Make sure to whistle for Gabby cause she came to be with you today. She missed her buddy and wanted to be with you. We will all miss her but know you will take good care of her.

Still think about you every single day and miss you all the time. Ty's birthday was a hoot!! As always wanted to go eat at the house of Japan. They are growing so fast and Landon is sweet and loving and thoughtful of everyone's feelings and he loves to make people laugh. Who does that remind you of???? Ty's bullheaded and too smart for his own britches sometimes but he is still stuck in his terrible twos. Cut his hair the other day clear to the scalp just like his mommy did at that age. Love seeing them go through their phases of their lives and see that they have you and Sara's same ideas and emulate both of you guys actions. Will never totally loose you cause you live through your boys in so many ways. Seen a show on T.V. yesterday and a young woman had lost her husband in a car accident and she was so angry that he had left her with two little boys to raise and someone told her to not be angry but to thank her husband for allowing her the opportunity to be a part of his life and to thank him for giving her two beautiful children. It was so moving to me and made me realize all of us need to thank you very much for allowing us to be a part of your life and to thank you for giving us two beautiful children to love, enjoy and watch them grow up. So thank you Brandy!!!!

Brandy's Head Stone is the most beautiful piece of art work I have seen, I went on the internet and that is where I got to see it! What a wonderful tribute to him and yourself. I love the bottom part which I am guessing is a picture of Sara and Brandy when they got married in Hawaii with their anniversary date. Again what a wonderful tribute to a wonderful human being!! Sara you are a remarkable women, be proud you have done well with every aspect of this tragedy !!

Hey Bran
I miss you so much. 2 weeks ago Jarred Walker and I were standing in the old bar behind the mall just going back to all the memories we had with you, man I started to cry. You know that there is always two deputies standing by the door for security and we were joking that you would have signed up the the extra duty to come and laugh at the idiots. I sit and look at the pictures that I have taken from the poker runs and I just die inside looking at landon because he is so much a reflection of you. Crhis has started that web site for you and he is looking for more pictures to load on and I am going to take mine of to see if there are any he want to put on. I am so excites for the run this year, manly I just like seeing the boys, Well gonna go Love you Bran.
