Lee & I were both quite outspoken, and butted heads the first time we met. However, as I got to know him, I realized he was a truly amazing individual. He always spoke his mind & wouldn't change for anybody despite the pressures he went through during school. He was kind, honest, and full of life. Lee was so much fun to be around - time spent with him was never boring! He leaves behind a legacy of living life to the fullest, loving like you've never been hurt, & staying loyal to family, friends, & self. He taught me more than I realized, & I still miss him dearly. Brandon Lee Wilkins, may you continue to rest in peace.
