School had just started about a couple months ago. You could have been a senior this year. It would've been awesome if you were here. You can make a lot friends really fast. They'll even think you're cool and start hang out around you everyday. I went the HomeComing game last month. Most of my friends are in marching band. They're going for state!!! I like hanging out with them at lunch. I wanted to be in marching band. But I was afraid that I might have to play the flute or clarinet. My friend put me in the band. I'm finally in. I got excited. We practiced a few times. I joined facebook not too long ago. I've found some our friends and add them. They accepted my request. I wish you had a facebook so we could chat and leave comments to eachother's wall. I can even leave you a birthday message. Last night I was thinking about you. You would always make me laugh. I don't know if I can't laugh anymore. My giggles and tears went with you. I want to see you again. I want see your light blond hair your face and your smile. I miss you very much. I will always think about you. I love you.
I miss you I still think about you everyday and wonder what you would be like. How much different you would now. I love you very much and my heart will always be broken.

Your 5th Anniversary :( / Diante Wayne ((Friend))
Hey Braden,
Last week was a sad day for me. Two years you were in my life and four years you 've been gone. These days are so hard. Everything changed since you left. New stores were build and new movies are playing in theaters. All the new video games are in stores also. I miss you deeply. I coudn't sleep well last night. You were in my dream again. I want to dream more of you. I just turned 17 three weeks ago. I kinda changed a bit. I wear glasses now. You might have a hard time regconizing me. Lol. You know what else is cool? The school had a party on the Patio right after school. They had water rides. My birthday was on that same day. That's really something huh? My friends and I were hanging out. Two of my friends got wet. One of them wet me. You probably were laughing up there. I wouldn't be laughing if I got you wet. My other friends were in a band. I watched them play. They were playing Say It Ain't So, Today, and Smells Like Teen Spirit. That's seems like a funny name for a song. But I'm sure you have a goofy smile teen spirit :) David and I still talk about you. But you still make us laugh. David is trying to be a comedian. He misses you. Summer is just starting and I will be thinking of you over the summer. I'll write you a message to you real soon. I love you, Braden.
your still making friends / Alyssa Burbridge (his brothers girlfriend )
hey there :). well did not get the chance to know you personally, in fact i didnt know anybody in your family as of 4 years ago, but your family has made such a big impression on me now, especially your brother kent, that i thought it time i play my part. there was only one time kent has truely opened up to me about you and he couldnt stop saying about how much he wishes you could come home. Everything he has told me about you has all been so sweet, you truely were a wonderful child braden and even though you are not here on earth with us any more, you are still making friends. I know that you have made one in me. I hope to still be around for years to come to celabrate your birthday and to release those balloons for you. You have a very loving family..who will never let your name be forgotten. Close
4 Years have gone by / Gramma Lyndi
Hope you enjoyed the messages we sent you today. All 17 baloons flew west this year instead of going east. Bailey, Connor, Jesse, Larry, Kent, Alyssa, your Mom and I released them out by your fountain in the back yard. Al, Grandma E, Big Larry, Aunt April, Aunt Tammi and Uncle James were not able to be here, but they sent messages anyway. We all miss you so much. We will never forget you, Braden. You brought such joy into our lives in the short time you were allowed to be with us. Jesse still remembers you and wants you to come home. He said so when we released the balloons this afternoon.

Bet HEAVEN don't have anymore Lizards!! / Jim Hudson (a friend )
Braden, you and David Cody are so much alike. Know that you two are together HEAVEN just won't be the same. My name is Jim Hudson, David Cody's grandpa. Don't beleave everything he tells you about me. Like when him and me would fight over the play station #2, or who could catch the most lizards. We had some good times. Sounds like you had some good times with your folks too. I know they miss you. It's really to darn bad that all you kids had to die to make people aware of that deadly chocking game. If you could have been with us on the last camping trip we took, you would have seen just how crazy Dave was about catching lizards. He saw one on the rocks in the middle of the creek, and the water was ice cold, but he went after that lizard. You would do that too. Right? I hope you and Dave have met and are talking about the good times you had when you were home. You take care and if you see dave give him a big hug for me, and give yourself one too.
BRAE!!!/ Jasmine Cashwell (GOOD friends (old crush) ) I think about you everyday your picure is in my binder. I miss 5th grade i was just remembering when you ate a whole bottle of glue.

Love you BraeClose

Happy 17 Birthday Braden!!! / Diante Monet Wayne ((Braden's friend) )
Happy birthday buddy!!!!
Sorry to tell you this late. My dad had to use the computer. I hope you're okay with that. Wow! I can't believe you're 17. I wanted to see how tall you have been. We wanted you down here for your birthday. We would've had a dance, play video games, and karaoke. It would have been so much fun. I miss you really badly. Two days ago, I was dreaming about you. I dreamed that I was at UnderDown. I saw you on the field that we used to hang out at. I called your name and you look at me and smiled. I ran to you and gave you a big hug. When I did, I couldn't feel you. Your whole body was turning invisible. It wasn't your real skin. I woke the next day realizing that it was not a real dream. I wanted it to happen. At school, they were doing a personal messages for Valentine's Day for special people. Some kids expressed their feelings to someone. I was about to leave a message to you, but no one mention it to me. I will write a note to you today. Before you left, I wanted to talk to you about how I feel for you. I was too scared to admitt it. I was hiding it from you. I'm sorry, buddy. Please forgive me. I didn't know what to do. I still have feelings for you. Someday I'll tell you. keep on watching over us, buddy. We terribly miss you. Happy birthday, Braden. I love you.
Happy Birthday! / Mom
Happy Birthday sweetheart. You're 17 today. I hope your day will be peaceful and happy in heaven. I wish you could be with me today, I wish I could have a party for you and invite all your friends. We used to have alot of fun with all of them here. It's not fair or right that you can't be with me today. I should be able to hug and kiss you on your birthday, that's what moms do. We are going to send balloons later, Jesse wants to send you a note. He still talks about "his Brady", I hope he still remembers the way you loved him. He will be 7 tomarrow, he is so much like you. Same sense of humor and he's just as daring as you were. Some of his expresions are so much like yours it makes my heart and soul ache. He wears his hair spiky just like you used to. He needed to grow up with you, you two would have been a pair! I don't think I will ever understand why you had to leave, you were so young and it is just sensless and a horrible waste. I need you to watch over your brothers and sister, help them make the right choices, be there guardian angle. Kent needs your guidance now more than ever, he's got alot of stuff going on and some pretty tough choices to make. Take care of him, I can't help him with this. I will always love and miss you and I think about you every day. The other day we were at the park and some one had a little boy named "Braden". I listened while she called him and I so wish it was me calling you. I'm sending you hugs and kisses on your special day, it's what moms do. Happy Birthday my Braden! I love you. Close
