HI Brandon, be be, buddy …
I miss you. Your smile, your laughs, your smell are still echoing in my mind. It is so hard knowing not able to hold your hand again. Wherever we went, you would hold my hand tight. When you were little and felt tired, you would ask “Gor gor, I want bo (carry me)”. Then you would jump up to my arms. Those pictures seem like yesterday.
For your short 21 years, you lived your life in full.
You were a good boy. You helped other people. You were kind, caring, and considerate to other people. People loved to be around you.
You were a happy boy. Wherever you went, you would light up the room. Your smile, your laughs and your dance moves always made people around you happy. When you sang, it was hard not falling for you.
You were a good student. You work hard at school. You always asked teachers to give you more works. You had passion of cooking. You were so talented on your ark works. You graduated high school last year with distinct student award. You loved your classmates and teachers so much. You said bye to everyone, literally everyone, before leaving school every time.
You were a funny boy. When you disagreed something, you would show your kung fu fists and said “you want to fight me” and tried to do pretend wrestling. Sometimes you would stick out your tongue and pat your bum bum to show you were making fun of other.
You were a strong boy. You showed us what it was like not giving up. You went to speech therapy to learn to speak each word a bit at a time. You walked and even ran on your own without the need of support on your feet. All these years, you fought your illness and won many battles. After each battle, you would get bigger and stronger. You would show like it had never happened and continued to live happily every day.
You love your parents. You always mentioned mama, daddy with smiles.
There are so much loving memory of you, Brandon. I cannot think of one thing of you not good. You are perfect. You will be missed so much. You will always be in my heart.
I know you are in a better place now. We will meet again.
Love you.
Your Har Ge Gor Gor (Harry)

Brandon was a sweet and gentle soul and it was an honour to meet him and have the chance to work closely with him over the past year. He brought a special joy to the Addus program and everyone loved spending time with him. I spent a lot of time cooking and baking with Brandon and will certainly miss him in the kitchen.
He shared a lot with us about his wonderful life that he was so very proud of. Brandon was a true blessing to so many people and we are all better for having known him.
Sincere condolences to all who loved him…he will certainly be missed! ❤️

I’m so sorry that he didn’t get to stay longer with his loving family and friends.
Brandon started to attend Addus less than one year ago and he was just the person we needed to add young energetic positive energy to the group. Brandon enjoyed coming in every day and always had something to tell us about his family and friends. He always wanted to show us his amazing lunch and tell us about what he wanted to buy that week. He loved going out for walks or taking the subway and the bus. He loved helping with cooking and he loved any food that we made together. He would always ask for soup for lunch and he knew when it was getting close to lunch time. He had excellent hygiene skills and we found it amazing that we didn’t need to remind him to wash his hands like we do with most participants. He loved to do art and he loved music, and on Friday’s he would sing his Taylor swift song and dance in karaoke. He really did help bring the group together with his funny giggles and sayings.
We will truly miss him and his exuberance in the Addus Program and we know we were very blessed to be able to know him for the short time we did.
Much love to everyone suffering this loss.

Words cannot express the loss we all feel. The pain and the sadness is something we are all experiencing.
Brandon, your bright light and happiness will continue to live on amongst all those lives you touched.
We push forward knowing the value that you embodied by living life, being kindhearted and to always treat and care for others that you so effortlessly shared is something to be cherished deeply.
Your lesson to all of us is a great gift.
Though brief, your time spent among all of us is a treasure and reminds us that it is not always about quantity but quality that matters most.
As we all go though the loss and pain, we take comfort knowing that you are in a very special place devoid of pain, sadness and suffering and in your own unique way continuing to find a way to spread that light down on to the rest of us.
Your warmth and generosity will be felt by the rest of us. We miss you but know that we will meet, again.
Love your uncle Edwin, auntie Blythe, and niece Jordan

Remembering Brandon
– Maureen Butler May 3, 2020
I’m thinking about Brandon today as I look at our fireplace here in North Vancouver, where Mr Giraffe sits. Mr Giraffe is made of a few toilet paper rolls, painted yellow with pieces of brown paper stuck on for spots, some yellow construction paper ears and an impish half smile. A few years ago, on one of our visits to Toronto, Brandon gave us Mr Giraffe, his artwork from his school program. We were so touched to receive this gift, something Brandon commonly did- give things away. On that visit, he showed us a lot of his art, and he kept smiling and trying to give all the pieces to his grandfather. Giving things away seemed to be one of Brandon’s favourite things to do. I heard that one year at Hallowe’en, he was very happy to be at home and give away the candy, even though he had a costume. I think he liked to give to others to make them happy. His generosity and the way he thought about others is not very common in this world.
Brandon seemed to love it when our family got together in Toronto. Doung remembers family dinners in restaurants. Brandon would usually order Coke, a treat, and he would eat heartily. He was a person of few words, but there was a calmness about his spirit at these dinners, even when the restaurant was busy, as if he had done his work to bring the family together. That was what mattered most to him. In these pandemic days, we have all come to realize what Brandon already knew- that family is more important than anything. Doung says that Brandon wanted him to pay the bill, which makes me laugh. It was as if Brandon knew what we needed to be happy: get together as a family for delicious food and conversation and don’t argue over who pays!
Brandon had a special love for Anna. I remember the first time we met him in High Park in Toronto, when he was about 5 and Anna was 10. He was just a little boy then, excited to run around on the grass with her. Simple things delighted him. And in the past few years, at his home, he liked sitting beside Anna when she visited. He also loved sitting beside his grandfather, and their special connection was lovely to see. Gung Gung and Brandon communicated so well without many words.
We were all honoured to attend Brandon’s graduation last October, something he had been talking about excitedly for months. Anna and I sat at the restaurant dinner with Herb and Brandon, who was looking very handsome and grown up (he was always a great dresser!) He eagerly dug into the food as I asked Herb about Brandon’s new day program. Herb said that the facilitators aimed to find what each person liked to do. One woman wanted to learn to bake, so the group started baking. Another guy wanted to do weight lifting, so they all did that. “What does Brandon like?” I asked. Herb smiled and said “they said he likes everything!” This is another lesson we can all learn from Brandon: be grateful for everything in your life. He certainly was.
After the dinner we went to the ceremony, which was long. Students in the regular program won multiple awards, and I was struck by the fact that Brandon wouldn’t win anything. I wondered if that would bother him. After an hour and a half, I worried that Brandon would be getting restless. Finally, at the end of the evening, Brandon walked up to the stage with his wonderful teacher, and he was just so thrilled to be there in his cap and gown to get his certificate. As a teacher who has taught many nonacademic students, I think that Brandon was in a sense a true scholar. A scholar isn’t the student who easily gets the A’s. A scholar is a student who works really hard just to finish, to complete. It was a great evening, and Brandon was the shining star.
In the last hours of Brandon’s life, Henry messaged us, saying “Brandon had a hard time making friends, but he always wanted to belong. He knew he was different but was always wanting to be accepted.” You, his parents, have been through so much with him and have seen other sides of Brandon that we didn’t see. I’m sad to think about what it was like for Brandon to be different and try to belong, and yet he was often so happy. This is amazing to me. Brandon’s life was too short, but he made the very best of it. We would all do well to follow in his footsteps.
Remembering Brandon and what really mattered to him can help us for the rest of our lives on this earth. His life and his character can remind us of the real value of a human life. We don’t need degrees, important jobs, fancy houses or money to matter in this world. We just need to touch the lives of others, as Brandon did every day.
We really miss him.
Maureen, Doung and Anna

Brandon was a keen student who truly had a love for learning. He would arrive to school every day and greet everyone with a smile that lit-up the entire department. He was indeed a social butterfly. He added enormous character to our class and I know that his peers always loved when Brandon would initiate interactions with them or encourage them to participate in cooperative activities. Brandon had a passion for Art and Gym and he thoroughly enjoyed completing all of his academic work. During free time at school, while his peers opted to take a break or use the computer, Brandon always wanted to do extra work. Brandon was also extremely generous. He genuinely experienced pure joy in the act of giving. Every year at Christmas time, Brandon arrived to school with presents anxious and excited to hand them out to his peers and staff.
Brandon had an eye for fashion, that is for sure! I always enjoyed seeing a new pair of running shoes purchased after every weekend trip to the mall. They were always unique and colourful just like Brandon. Brandon was always the first one to notice others’ attire and made sure to make a comment to show his approval; he was quick to compliment novel nail colours or new footwear and suggested when it was a good time for me to sport a new look . He always kept me up to date!
Brandon enjoyed participating in our life skills program; going grocery shopping and making meals together. He had a big appetite for the best things in life and he radiated his love wherever he went. Brandon was truly a very special young man. I am so honoured to have been his teacher. This is a great loss for all those who knew Brandon. His sweet, gentle soul, bright personality and all of the memories that he engraved in all of us, will live on forever.

No words can describe my pain, my son
Neither sun nor my body can rekindle your warmth
A heart that has always given was first you let expire
A lifeless you connect me to history, full of pity, full of torment
I find solace in the flame that reconnects you to heavens
Elated that what nourished, you expended for joy to others
You teach us all goodness, giving, kindness, love
21 years to realize what it all means
You teach a simple lesson for all to live by
I need your guidance, walk with me in what remains

To our beloved nephew Brandon,
Our heart aches to lose a special nephew like you – someone with a God given gift of bringing joy, warmth, and kindness to people around you. In your brief life on earth, you have touched the lives and hearts of so many who knew you. Despite your battle against disease, you brightened every person you came in contact with, always, always thought about others. You have taught us an important lesson that life is measured not in how many years we live, but how much depth of love and kindness we have been able to bring to others. Thank you for teaching us this important lesson. We want you to know that your uncle Raymond and Auntie Yumiko are proud of you. Although we weren’t able to share more time with you, your smiles and gentleness will continue to stay with us all through memories. Keep watch over all of us until we meet again. Love Uncle Raymond & Auntie Yumiko

You have landed to a palace. There are lots of angels to play with you, it’s full of joy, no more illness nor tears. I think you are more happy now. We have to get used to no visitation from you, the restaurant will be very quiet without you, we will miss you.
I know I will see you again, but don’t know when, then you have to guide me the way and host me to the most fun place; over there we don’t have to break ice cube, cause I heard there are jade & marble around the wall, floor & stairs, so we can break it instead of ice. I know we will have lots of things to do & play when we meet. You will be in my heart forever.
Please take good care of yourself. We all love you.

Dear Eva,
This is Carolyn Slogar. I worked with Brandon at Oakwood.
Please accept my most deepest saddest condolences for my dear dear favourite student Brandon. My heart is full of sadness and I can’t even imagine what you and Brandon’s father and significant others must be going through. My mind is full of happy memories of your sweet boy. He was always the bright light in the class. I loved working with him and I am full of sadness that he is no longer gracing this world with his positive outlook on life. His energy and kindness and forgiveness and strength even in days when he was struggling physically or fighting a cold he always wanted to come to school. Eva when you sent me photos and video a few months back you just made my heart sing knowing that he was out there experiencing the world and people and having an adventure of a life time. I am truly so very sad. I woke up this morning listening to the birds sing and then realizing again that Brandon is not here anymore. He was so fortunate to have such loving parents that would send him to school with the most delicious looking lunches in his little containers and the most stylish clothes. He’d always be so excited when he got new running shoes or pants. Or a new down jacket. He was so well cared for and loved and you could tell when you guys would come to pick him up early on Fridays. He was so proud of all of you and excited to tell me and staff that he was going home. I will miss his warm smile and kind eyes and his sweet smile. I have some pictures and videos that I will send you of your sweet son. I have a picture he drew for me years ago. It is still on my fridge. My heart is aching with you in your grief. He will be missed. I am here thinking about you all.
Carolyn
Thanks Carolyn

就請將8月2日及4月25日好好地, 靜靜地埋在心中深處。
98年小Brandon在妳及他daddy的懷中, 天真及好奇地來到了這個叫 ‘地球’ 的物體, 開始了他在這世上的旅程探索。
21年多以来, 他在你們的悉心照料及爱護下慢慢成長。
與其他大多數的孩子相比，小Brandon 的成長旅程更具挑戰性得多，因為在他带來這世上的隨身行李中， 他竟然頑皮地 pack 咗一樣叫 Leigh syndrome 的玩具。這是一件可以隨時致命的玩具，甚至可以快到在三數年間就可以完結他的旅程。
但小 Brandon 他可能認為 ‘既带来之, 則安之’。竟然勇敢地與 ‘它’ 共存了21年多。當然這也是因為得到了其父母親的無盡關爱照料才能走過這些高低起伏。
人生在世， 每個人的到達終點距離都不一樣。有些選擇了數年，數月，甚或是數小時。 當然有人選擇了數十年。
小Brandon選擇了21年多。這是我們都要接受(或更應該説, 是要尊重的) 現在，他已到達了他的終點, 這是他認為是最適合他的。所以我們不應憂傷， 只要將與小 Brandon 一起走過的日子， 及其中所有的快樂, 担憂, 又或者甚至是偶然的勞氣? 激氣? 與4月25日一起安静地埋在心中, 那已是足夠.
如果我可以代小Brandon 說一句話， 這一定也是他要跟他父母親要說的話 … 他享受他的旅程, 無悔無究。 💪💪💪🙏🙏🙏
Please bury it quietly in your heart on August 2 and April 25.
In 98, Little Brandon came to this object called ‘Earth’ innocently and curiously in the arms of you and his daddy, and began his journey in this world.
For more than 21 years, he has grown up slowly with your careful care and love.
Compared with most other children, Brandon ’s growth journey is much more challenging, because in the carry-on luggage he brought in this world, he actually packs a toy called Leigh syndrome naughtily. This is a toy that can be deadly at any time, and can even finish his journey in three years.
But Brandon, he may think that ‘both bring it, it will be safe’. It has courageously coexisted with ‘It’ for more than 21 years. Of course, this is also because of the endless care of his parents to walk through these ups and downs.
Life is alive, everyone has a different distance to the end. Some choose years, months, or even hours. Of course someone has chosen for decades.
Little Brandon chose more than 21 years. This is something we all have to accept (or rather, respect). Now that he has reached his end point, this is what he thinks is the most suitable for him. So we should not be sad, as long as the days we have traveled with Little Brandon, and all the happiness, worry, or even accidental labor? Excited? Quietly buried in the heart with April 25 That is enough.
If I could say a word on behalf of Brandon, this must be what he wants to say to his parents … He enjoys his journey without regret. 💪💪💪🙏🙏🙏
Thanks Baby Michael, Fred and Mabel🤗

My daughter Erin and I are very sorry to hear of Brandon’s passing and want to express to his family our deepest condolences. Erin was in the same Thursday program with Brandon. He was a wonderful addition to the Addus family and his engaging smile and sweet disposition will never be forgotten.

Brandon, although you have left us temporarily, don’t worry, we will meet again in heaven soon. We will remember your bright and innocent smile! I will follow your friendly and sincere attitude, I hope I can go to heaven like you, then we can play again as before, and then you can show me what your new stuff or star war toys ! Please rest assured, don’t feel lonely, because we all can meet again soon 😉.Miss you uncle Patrick.

Sunny Bear,這麼多年來一直未有機會跟你見面，只是卻又真實地透過那全心愛你的母親感受到你每月每年的成長，也為著你天生不幸的病情難過，但同時又從你們倆身上看到母愛原來可以是如此的偉大，也為你能夠有著這麼的一位堅強全能的母親感受到你也是世上其中一位最幸運的小孩子。
我不善言辭，只哀心祝你從此自由，平安喜樂，有一天我們也能在天堂見面一起分享所有凡間體驗..…：）

Brandon was a sweet kid with positivity exuding from him. He thought me a valuable lesson, that any form of life should be appreciated. I’m grateful to have met him and I know he is in a better place shining his light brighter than ever.
