Emerging from the valley of grief and sorrow in the aftermath of the loss of a loved one is a difficult and long process. The pain and agony brought on by the sudden transition from mortality to immortality of my brother - Brandon Bradley Braynen persists, but we are comforted daily by the precious memories of the invaluable moments we shared. We look forward to that beautiful and glorious morning...
