Our hearts are broken. 2 months have gone by but it feels like it was yesterday when you left us 😔

I don’t know how we get through each day, how we will continue to move forward without you in our lives 💔

A hole in our hearts that will never be filled ❤️

No matter what we try to do to figure why you left us, why you couldn’t speak to us or anyone to help you. In the end nothing we do will change anything 💔

You’re never coming home to us 💔💔💔

Brandon I miss you so much I wish you had spoken to me about what was going on I would of done anything for ye 💔 I love you and I hope your having a good time up in heaven until we meet again my Angel sleep tight 🕊️❤️

Life’s never going to be the same without you 💔

Each day that goes by it gets harder 😔 because we realise more and more there is nothing we can do that will bring you home 💔

People say time heals but it never will. Our hearts get heavier as each day goes by. Our hearts are broken and will never heal 💔💔💔💔

So many people loved you we don’t think you even realised it! So many would of helped you if you had of just reached out to one person and told them what was going on 💔

So much left in your life to do! Grow your business and become bigger and better! Travel the world! Have a family 😔 all these things you will never get to do 💔

I wish you thought back to the nights we sat on the bored walk and talked I wish you thought back to the night I sat in swooshed at like 1am and we talked I wish you just thought back to them 💔 you knew you could of text me or rang me at any time day or night and I’d be there for ye 😭💔 I miss you so much I just want to thank you again for being someone I looked up to for being the best person in my life for being my best friend for being my partner in crime for being someone I could always rely on until we meet again sleep tight my angel 🕊️❤️ I love you ❤️

all the photos we have together I’ll forever look back at them all the mad videos I’ll look back at them especially the one of you dancing 😂❤️ or the video you took of you putting your doorbell in the fridge for the laugh 😂 remember we constantly used to have the same debate every single day about you and your butter on bread 😂 made me sick how much butter you put on your bread and as you always said to me “ it makes me sick how you don’t put butter on bread ” 😂 or the day I lost my voice and that’s the day you knew you could say anything and I couldn’t say nothing back 😂 you took full advantage of that day 😂❤️ or the day we went to mini golf I was so nervous at first but quickly came out of my shell when I realised how good you wore at it you won by literally 1 point I was fuming but we also had the best day ❤️ I remember the day you bought me a teddy bear and sprayed your aftershave on it and asked me to be your girlfriend 🥺I want you to know I still have it I sleep with it every night and it brings me a lot of comfort ❤️ Brandon I miss you loads I just wish you came and spoke to me you knew you could I wish you told me what was bothering you and I would of done anything to help you ❤️

Well Brandon
I miss you so much I miss are long chats in swooshed I miss going out to you after work I miss taking 20 years to decide what we want to eat I miss everything. Remember the day you picked me up and we drove into town so you could of course go get a wow burger and you left me in the car and the alarm start going off I think that’s the day I turned into a red tomato I remember every single person looking at me 😂 and you came back and wouldn’t stop laughing at the fact I couldn’t turn off the car alarm 😂 I miss these little moments together or when you wanted me to pick up the cone off the ground so you could put it in your bedroom 😂 I really do miss you I miss seeing your smile I miss giving you hugs I miss hearing your laugh I miss you pushing me around town 😂 I miss you kicking me off my own bed or me kicking you off yours 😂 nothing feels the same without you 💔

Deepest sympathy rest in peace Brandon xx

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.

If tears could build a stairway,and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to Heaven and bring you home again

Brando where do I start, the sneaker bros group chat won’t ever be the same without your daily #WOFT’s or BOSH snaps. As one of your closest mates in the game it’s not the same without you bro. I’m always thinking about you and hope you’re at peace in heaven with your nana.❤️

I also want to thank you once again for being my inspiration & someone to look up to. At 16 you opened Swoosh on January 16th 2022. Battling Nike you came out as Swooshed with a brilliant and genius marketing outcome all over the news only growing more. You’re the most successful out of all of us and I was one of many that looked up to you the most and I hope you know that Brando. You taught me diligence, patience & to work hard.

I miss all the chats we’d have on insta and in your shop. If I was ever upset or not in the mood, I’d always come out of your shop in stitches because of how funny you are not to mention how nice too!

I wish you opened up to me and told me if anything was upsetting you or if anything was on your mind that’s bothering you as I remember asking you the weekend I last headed into your shop before the 27th how you are and you said you’re grand 💔

Thank you for the memories we’ve made together & being my best mate in the game. Thank you for teaching me to work hard as you’ve displayed it with your milestones accomplished at such a young age.

You’ll forever be remembered & commemorated. Love & miss you loads Brando hope you‘re getting on well up in heaven.❤️🕊️

I miss u so much I hope u and nanny are having fun up there and ur telling nanny all about shoes 😂 and opening ur new swooshed up there and making everyone happy because I miss u like terrible and wish I could see u and nanny one more time xx 🕊️😇

Words can’t express how much I miss u I have never felt so lost I miss u like crazy 🕊️😇

If love alone could have saved you, You never would have died.

In life we loved you dearly, in death we love you still.

In our hearts you hold a place no one else could fill.

You are always in our hearts and on our minds every second of every day. We still can't believe your gone and never coming home 💔

Nothing we do or say will ever bring you back to us 😔

FOREVER 18 💔

Forever 18 💔 always in our hearts 😘

I love you so much Brandon I won’t mention the rest of are memories but every memory created with you will forever have a place in my heart ❤️ Brandon thank you for being a best friend for always waiting for my bus with me for never letting me walk through town alone for always cheering me up for teaching me so much in life for sticking by my side for everything you ever done for me you will truly be missed I love you so much sleep tight my angel until we meet again 05-09-2005 - 27-10-2023 🕊️🤍

then the day came I started college and you said to me go in and do your best and never give up I remember on my lunch breaks I’d ring you and ye would always mess with me and say “ any good looking girls in your class ” and I’d always say Goway now Brandon and you always came back with what I’m only asking 😂❤️ as much as you annoyed me some days you also thought me what a best friend looked like you thought me so many things in life that I never knew you where the cleverest person I have ever met you always had a answer to any question I ever asked you ❤️ I remember are little days out together remember bray we walked half way up the mountain and you sat down on the bench you told me to come over to ye and you said to me I bought ye something and I said what did ye get me and you said put your hand out and close your eyes and next of all you put something into my hand ( we won’t mention what) that was one of my favourite memories with you also probably the funniest 😂 or howth when you said something to me and I didn’t hear ye I asked ye to repeat and it’s defo the day we both laughed till are chest hurt 😂 we have so many memories but you know my favourite one is of course are late night drives going to get food it was only ever 3 options noodles pizza or of course wow burgers oh do I miss these memories so much if you where here you know we would still be out and about like you always told me you can sleep whenever you want you have limited time to make memories 🥺

Well Brandon I don’t even know where to start I miss you more than anything in this world I’ll never come to terms with why you done this why you had to leave I’ll never understand it everyone tells me it will get easier but it just seems to be getting harder by the day I miss my best friend my partner in crime my favourite person the one I done everything with what I loved most about you is if I was having a bad day and needed someone to cheer me up I’d just pick up the phone ring you and suddenly the smile would be back on my face you had such a massive impact on my life and I’m forever grateful that you got to be apart of it I remember the day I first met you the day my life changed forever the day I knew I met my best friend I remember walking up O’Connell street and you telling me all about swooshed and all I remember is being so proud of you. You where only 17 and you had opened your very own business most 17 year olds couldn’t do that even if they tried ❤️ I remember you turning around to me and saying what do you do for a living and I laughed and you said what 😂 and when I told you I was only sitting my leaving cert you said to me “ your going to do great ” I remember the day my leaving cert started I was so nervous and you told me it was only a piece of paper and it didn’t define my future and you where so right I worked myself up for nothing ❤️

I’ll continue on I’ve ran out of space x

Brandon I still can't believe you gone, 2 whole months since you gained your wings, 2 whole months without my big brother, my hero and of course the best business man around, I just can't get over it and I never will get over it and you will never leave my heart or my mind until the day I meet you again, everyone is just lost without you, I want you to keep going with swooshed up in heaven and let nanny bridy see how much you have accomplished I life, I have sososo many memories with you in my whole 13 years of life and I want to rewind to every single one, I just wish you came and talked to someone, I would of listened to you for hours on end, I would do or pay anything to talk to you or hug you one more time, this is the worst thing that has ever happened to me I my entire life, I hope Im doing you proud bro and you'll forever do me proud x, 5.9.05 ~ 27.10.23 , forever 18, always in my heart as big bro and never forget swooshed, I jus want to say I love and miss you so much and a merry Christmas a happy new year and for peace and rest up in heaven with your new friends, love you xx

My heart goes out to the family of Brandon rip ❤️❤️

Swooshed will alway be remembered. Fly high Brando we all love you .

IT WAS SO LOVELY TO BE AT BRANDON 18 TH BIRTHDAY LOVE MARIE XX

Love and miss you always, heartbroken 💔💔💔💔

My First time meeting Brandon was at the first sneaker convention in Limerick. Our stalls were next to each other and I remember buying a supreme accessory off of him. After my First encounter him, I knew Brandon was a genuine person who had great passion for the sneaker game.

The next time I saw Brandon was a few months later at the opening of his store in Dublin. I remember thinking how impressive and motivating Brandon's growth was since the first time I had saw him. I always looked up to Brandon and admired his ambition and drive, as he was always hard at work with his shop.

The sneaker bros groupchat will never be the same without Brandon's presence and banter, he was truly a good person who was always easy to have a laugh with.

The Irish sneaker game will never be the same without him, and he will be forever remembered by us all.

Oh Brandon I don’t know where to start, you were everything to me, my big brother, my hero, You are missed by so so so so so many people, family, friends, sneaker community and many others, I don’t even know how I got trough Christmas without you, it just didn’t feel right being the only child on Xmas morning opening my presents without you next to me, or having to share any of my Halloween sweets with you, bringing boba into you in work, going on late night drives, going on quads or jet skis in Spain, you put your whole heart and soul into your business and it turned out absolutely brilliant, everyone loved coming in and having chats with you, I did, I really did love talking to you, I remember the day before you left us I was in town with ma and brought boba into you and you were so sad sitting there and I didn’t know what was up, little did I know that was the last time I would ever see or talk to my big brother ever ever again, I sobbed and sobbed when I found out you were gone, so did ma da nanny and Granda and many many other people, you were always there for everyone and always had a laugh, I know we had our ups and downs but we are brothers and sisters so we are ment to do that, lol, but I just sit there every night thinking of all the great memory’s with you and what we could of done, but you left us too too soon, I never taught I’d follow my big brother out of the church in a coffin, I just want to say happy Christmas, a happy new year and peace in heaven 🕊️💙

Brandon was nothing less than a kind hearted person. Every time we went into the shop he was always so welcoming and there to help. We bought 2 pairs of shoes off of him and even through instagram dms he was so helpful . Nothing but a lovely , kind , helpful young man . From me my parents Rest in peace Brandon Fly high♥️

It was only 2 weeks ago I was walking through town and I walked down abbey street and it didn’t feel the same everything was just silent there was no music nothing and I remember saying to myself if Brandon was here he would have a massive line outside swooshed because you wore such a inspirational business man I looked up to you more than you could have ever imagined everything I done in life you were so proud and I used to think why but Brandon you really did make me a better person and I thank you every single day for sticking by my side throughout everything.

Until we meet again sleep tight my angel 🕊️❤️

Myself and my wife Carol frequented the shop a number of times since it opened. Unfortunately I am a large shoe size and there was limited availability for me. Brandon was always willing to keep an eye out for anything in my size. You knew that he had such a passion for sneakers and was very professional.

Nah man, not in that size. Always a cheeky little smile.

Condolences to you all, especially at this difficult time of year (Christmas 2023)

The memorial outside the store is very touching 🙏🏻

Sienna Denise Alan, Thinking of all of you on the sudden sad and tragic passing of Brandon May he have eternal rest. I pray the passage of time will heal your pain. RIP big man

So sorry for the loss of your beautiful son.

Well Brandon I’m lost for words tho we haven’t crossed paths in a long time you’ll always be apart of my child hood always the brightest and smartest guy in the room with such big personality I pray for your family and friends and hope your at peace till we meet again dear friend ❤️

Alan, Denise and Sienna.
Deeply saddened at your
loss.
Hoping your many happy memories of Brandon will help you to cope.
I will keep all of you and Brandon in my thoughts.

Where do I even begin, I got the pleasure of watching Brandon grow up into a smart, kind, funny and strong willed young man. When I look back at years of memories my biggest ones of you are making me laugh being the biggest wind up merchant I know I could never give out to you seriously without laughing.
You had such an amazing future ahead of you that was sadly taken from you too soon.
I know you’ll always be watching over your heartbroken family whose lives will never be the same without you in it, for such a young man you’ve made the biggest impact. You were such a key part in a lot of people’s lives.
Fly high Brandon, out of angst and pain and make sure to keep your family close they’ll need you ❤️
You’re someone I’ll never forget.❤️
