FROM THE FAMILY
If we could have a lifetime wish
and one dream that could come true
We would pray to God with all our
hearts just to see and speak to you
A thousand words won’t bring you back
We know because we’ve tried
and neither will a million tears
We know because we’ve cried
You’ve left behind our broken hearts
and precious memories too
But we’ve never wanted memories
We only wanted you
Love your family
Silly Goose- By Brandon Lanie Age 10
If everyone were as safety conscious as Brandon was, tragedies such as this could be prevented.
Brandon Mitchell Lanie “Buddy” died tragically at the tender age of 14 when he was mistaken for a deer while deer hunting on November 18, 2006. Brandon was a freshman in High School. He was an avid hunter and fisherman and had such a love for the outdoors and more patience than most people can even understand.
The BLESS organization was established to help build a better outdoors through education and awareness. We believe this was a very preventable tragedy, losing a child is an unimaginable nightmare. If BLESS can help prevent another family from losing a child, or any loved one, then we feel we have accomplished our goal.
In Memory of Brandon Mitchell Lanie 1992-2006
