Out of respect for the family, we have been waiting for the family to post & share the news before we shared with our followers & valued customers. We learned late Friday evening of the passing of one of our own π from injuries of a tragic car accident in Shelbyville that occurred on Thursday evening. To say our hearts are broken of this unexpected, sudden loss is an understatement π’.
Saturday we set up a table with his pictures in memorium at 'his table' where he always sat to eat. Brayden graduated this past May, enlisted in the United States Air Force & was anxiously awaiting his date to leave for basic training in just 17 days.
18 years old with a whole life ahead of him.
If this doesn't touch you & make you stop in your tracks to realize to NOT take one single day for granted, look to the sky when you wake up & thank our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ for another day then I don't know what does!! People always seem to say "you never know" & that seems redundant yes, but ever so such a true statement. A family has lost a son & brother, cousin, grandson & nephew, friends have lost their compadre, the Air Force has lost an excellent intelligent young new enlistee, a church has lost a youth & church member, one of "our Depot kids" that came onboard with us shortly after we started this brick & mortar journey.
We will have 'his table' up all this coming week along with a donation box & with permission from the family, we will be doing this to go towards funeral expenses.
Thank you Sturgeons for sharing your boy with us for the short time we had him β€οΈ We were honored to be his 'true out in the real world' first job π
He will not be forgotten!!!
