In Loving Memory of Brady Marshal Patterson
January 30, 1992 - March 18, 2009

Oh Brady.. my brother is with you now. Losing him so young has brought up losing you all over again. But when I lost you, I can honestly say I became a better sister. Losing you taught me that we are not guaranteed time and that we should always show people how much we love them, because we never know if we are hugging someone for the last time. So thank you for that. Losing him hurts so much, but at least I know that my brother knew how much he was loved. And when I hugged him goodbye, I hugged him twice. Take care of him up there. Show him around. Can't wait to see you both again.

Not a day goes by that I don't keep you close to my thoughts. Things are so crazy these days. And I can't help but think of how different things would be if you where still here. You never needed anyone. You where a shining star in this dim world. 11years later and I still have never met anyone remotely close to you. A true homie. A true friend. A brother. I miss you now just as much as I ever did. I will keep pushing to create a life for myself that you would be proud of.

Miss you bud. Happy birthday

Happy 26th birthday Brady. Having a drink for you tonight! I love you

"You want a physicist to speak at your funeral. You want the physicist to talk to your grieving family about the conservation of energy, so they will understand that your energy has not died. You want the physicist to remind your sobbing mother about the first law of thermodynamics; that no energy gets created in the universe, and none is destroyed. You want your mother to know that all your energy, every vibration, every Btu of heat, every wave of every particle that was her beloved child remains with her in this world. You want the physicist to tell your weeping father that amid energies of the cosmos, you gave as good as you got.

And at one point you'd hope that the physicist would step down from the pulpit and walk to your brokenhearted spouse there in the pew and tell him that all the photons that ever bounced off your face, all the particles whose paths were interrupted by your smile, by the touch of your hair, hundreds of trillions of particles, have raced off like children, their ways forever changed by you. And as your widow rocks in the arms of a loving family, may the physicist let her know that all the photons that bounced from you were gathered in the particle detectors that are her eyes, that those photons created within her constellations of electromagnetically charged neurons whose energy will go on forever.

And the physicist will remind the congregation of how much of all our energy is given off as heat. There may be a few fanning themselves with their programs as he says it. And he will tell them that the warmth that flowed through you in life is still here, still part of all that we are, even as we who mourn continue the heat of our own lives.

And you'll want the physicist to explain to those who loved you that they need not have faith; indeed, they should not have faith. Let them know that they can measure, that scientists have measured precisely the conservation of energy and found it accurate, verifiable and consistent across space and time. You can hope your family will examine the evidence and satisfy themselves that the science is sound and that they'll be comforted to know your energy's still around. According to the law of the conservation of energy, not a bit of you is gone; you're just less orderly. Amen."

~ Aaron Freeman

You will always be a part of me. I feel your energy always.

R.I.P. Brady. You are missed.
