Brandon Tavon Cassidy was born on September 13, 2004, in Randolph County, North Carolina, to his loving parents, Rodney and LaTasha Cranford Cassidy. Brandon was a beloved son, brother, uncle, grandson, nephew, cousin, and friend whose life, though far too short, left an unforgettable mark on the hearts of everyone who had the privilege of knowing and loving him. Brandon was a loving, hardworking, talented, and determined young man who could accomplish anything he put his mind to. He was extremely handy and had a natural ability to learn different trades, work with his hands, fix things, and help others whenever they needed him. Brandon was also known for his sense of humor and his ability to brighten any room. He loved making people laugh and was often everyone’s “hype man,” always encouraging others and making the people around him feel loved and special. Brandon enjoyed spending time outdoors, especially fishing and riding dirt bikes / motorcycles. He also had a strong love for cars and enjoyed working on them and being around them especially with his father. Brandon had a special place in his heart for animals. He rescued and lovingly cared for his dog, Capone, and his two turtles, giving each of them plenty of love, care, and attention. Above all, Brandon loved and cherished his family. The special relationships he shared with his loved ones meant so much to him, helping especially his Aunt Angela look after his grandfather Bobby Cranford and creating memories that will be treasured forever.

Brandon is preceded in death by his grandfather Curtis Cassidy, his great grandmothers Alline Isley, Adrian King, Margaret Poindexter and great grandfather Clarence Poindexter, his uncle Randy King, his cousins Travis Cassidy, Ciara Heigaard and Clarence Cranford.
