All of Brandon's Friends.
If you were to graduate with Brandon and would like to share something special on his webnsite for that day. Than please, Email Me and I would be more that happy to add it. Poems, messages, letters, memories, photos are all welcome.
JUNE 24, 2003
This is the day you should have graduated grade 8.
I went to your grave site and brought you 3 white roses and 1 red rose.
They stood for the 3 of us that you left behind, and the love we have for you.
Your cousin Kyle started to attend your school and he was set to graduate this year too.
So Aunt Lee invited me to go to the grad ceremony.
So I did, but sweetie it was so hard,
to watch all your friends graduate and you not be standing there with them.
They all looked so grown up,
I tried so hard to imagine what you would look like now.
Wondered how tall you would be, how handsome you would have looked,
or if you would be shaving yet.
All the girls looked so pretty, kept wondering how many of them would have been your girlfriend.
I tried to not be noticed, I didn't want to upset your friends,
it was their big day.
I ended up having to put my sunglasses on so I could hide my tears.
You should have been there Brandon,
and it hurts me so bad that you weren't.
I guess afterwards at the dance some of the kids approached Kyle
and asked "was that Brandon Monrose's mom?
Kyle said yes, but she is my aunty too.
I have become so close with Kyle, Cody, and Tyler since you passed.
They have been so loving to me,
I think they are trying real hard to fill the void you have left in my heart.
The next day aunty Lee brought me over the year book,
your friends honored you in there.
What I loved the most was the teachers had said they could do this,
but your name was not to be mentioned.
So once the yearbook was done, and it was approved...
they stepped up to the plate for you.
Each girl opened the book to your page and wrote your name by hand
in each and every book.
That touched me so.
I have to be honest, I have been sad since that day,
crying off and on, missing you so much.
I want you back so bad Brandon.
This hurts so much.
I hope that you were there with us that day,
and that you always know how much you are loved and missed.
You are still my heart Brandon
Love Mom
