In just minutes, our family’s entire world changed forever. My sister was on the phone with the love of her life Brandon, hearing his voice, completely unaware it would be the last time. Just eight minutes later, he was gone—his life taken in a brutal and senseless act of violence. In that same heartbreaking moment, his sister was also taken from this world. Two beautiful lives lost in an instant.
He was a devoted father, a loving son, a brother, uncle and the heart of his family. He leaves behind five children who now must face life without their dad—the one who protected them, loved them, and guided them every day. He also leaves behind a father who suffers from dementia. My sister is now living a nightmare no one could ever prepare for. One moment she was speaking to the man she loved, and moments later, everything was taken from her. She is grieving an unimaginable loss while trying to stay strong for the children who are left confused, heartbroken, and searching for answers.
This was not just a loss—it was a violent, sudden tragedy that has left an entire family shattered. We are asking for support to help lift some of the overwhelming burden during this incredibly difficult time. Donations will go toward funeral services, supporting immediate and future needs, and allowing my sister the space to grieve without the added weight of financial stress. If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this and keeping our family in your thoughts and prayers. Please hold your loved ones close. Life can change in an instant. Thank you for your compassion, kindness, and support during this devastating time.
I have been asked about other ways to donate. There's has been a venmo account set up @mimi_lynn22
