Vik, we got the news of Brandi’s passing from Kelli O. Startling and sad news to say the least. Obviously we didn’t know Brandi well but the few times we met her and spoke with her we were charmed at her gentle and genuine spirit. We would offer to help more if we were in the area. We will remember you and the kids in our prayers and we will ask that you be strengthened to find your way through this tragedy. Our deepest sympathies, Carmen and Beth.
So sorry to hear about Brandi’s passing. We know that she will be watching over us. God Bless all of you. She will be greatly missed.
I played the clarient with Brandi at CHS. She laughed when I got in trouble, but was always willing to help me understand the material (so that I won’t get into trouble.) My thoughts and prayers go to her family and friends. I will always remember Brandi for her kindness, and her willingness to help others.
Dear Brenda and family, I am truly sorry for your loss. I am at loss for words, I wish I could take all your sorrow and pain away.
