Brandon Tenison's Life Celebration Fund

This is Brandon. You may not know this, but Brandon was your friend. Never met him? Doesn't matter.  Brandon wanted to know you. Brandon wanted to help you out. Somehow, some way,  Brandon wanted to brighten your day a bit. He couldnt help himself. Just a good natured kid who wanted you to smile more and live on the sunny side of life. His character and his qualities are so hard to come by in this world.  Just a special human being.  Too special perhaps as our heavenly father came calling for him on June 15th 2019.

     A perfect day at the lake with his family & friends became a living nightmare for anybody with a loved one. Brandon drowned.  And so did too his glorious potential future and the hearts of us all that were fortunate enough to know him. 

His family, unable to find him through the murky lake water, left agonizing in grief on the shore until Brandon's body was recovered and brought to land. Gone from it the radiant beacon of light that was shining just hours before. His mother and father now left with nothing but memories of their baby boy. But, like we all should, will try and remember to smile more. Just like Brandon wanted. 

 Our Brandon will be laid to rest on June 19th. It will be a day of immense sadness understandably but will also be one of celebration. He surely didnt know he'd be leaving this life so soon but he made certain he got the most out of it every day. And people like that deserve to be celebrated. 

Compounding with the emotional cost of losing Brandon, the financial cost for this celebration has also put a significant strain on the Tenison family. Such a strain that we're reaching out to anyone in a position to do so, help to lighten their load. Any amount is more than appreciated.  Even if you feel like you're just a stranger, please consider. Because Brandon never met one.
