BRANDON JONTAE HEARD, JR.
Brandon Jontae Heard, Jr. was born February 28, 2006 in Tampa, FL. Brandon was a 6th grader at Horace Mann Middle School. He was a vivacious 11- year-old who enjoyed dancing, football, basketball, fishing and pretty much anything that you introduced to him.
Brandon was a nurturing spirit who loved his mother, life, and animals and would often be found at the nearby lake with his father learning how to fish. He loved to play football and was a member of the Unity Viking Organization. He was free spirited and be- cause of this, he never met a stranger. He had the ability to light up a room with his smile and personality.
Our beloved Prince Bran- don, aka “BJ,” answered the Master’s eternal calling and is now at rest in His bosom.
