man so much has changed. im not even in douglas and i can tell. but ive realized that we havent lost everything. i mean, there are so many things i wish i could talk to you in person about, but your not here in person only in spirit so all we can do is pray and stick together. i remember you and me used to go to phills all the time to shred and we would always go to concerts together. i still think about the carnifex concert when the lead singer for ruins of tomorrow came up and was screaming in your face. you got so excited after that that you never even touched ur phone until we left. man ill be goin to a skate comp down here and there are gonna be live bands. if ruins of tomorrow are there ill tell them you said whats up. i know whats goin on in my own way and no one truly understands how everyone feels about it but were all here. im tryin to get out asap and those of you out there who know me well know you can talk to me and that im here for you. toni, jake, kasey. kelsey, tiana, jordan, rowdy, doltan, and everyone else brady loved you all in some way shape or form and so do i so never forget who your friends are because they will allways be there when you need them.
~ Skyler Keller, WyomingWords by Sherrie Austin
Words, they don't mean nothing
So tell me why they hurt so much
I meant to tell you something
It was on the tip of my tongue
Words rush by so quickly
And it's too late to take them back
I tried to say I'm sorry
And that goodbye was just an act
But all my words got in the way
And all the things I meant to say
Were not the things you heard
Oh, why'd you have to go
And take me at my word
Words come back to haunt you
Yeah, they just keep hanging around
I still can hear the echo
I still can hear their angry sound
But all my words got in the way
And all the things I meant to say
Were not the things you heard
Oh, why'd you have to go
And take me at my word
Words can say I love you
Oh, words can break a heart
I should have stopped you leaving
And told the truth right from the start
But all my words got in the way
And all the things I meant to say
Were not the things you heard
Oh, why'd you have to go
And take me at my word
((Take me at my word Brades. I miss you like crazy.. I love you.))

~ Shortie, ColoradoR.I.P. Brady. You will be missed.
~ Colt Self, TexasI was among those who didn't know Brady well...
Its amazing to realize that even without knowing a person well, their death makes a huge impact on your life.
As I walked through the halls of DHS,I realize how much I missed out on not knowing Brady.
He meant a lot to everyone, and I wish I could have been blessed with someone as meaningful as Brady.
Brady will be missed, from family, friends, and acquaintances showing just how much he meant.
~ Anonymous, Wyomingi remember seeing you Brady..at physical therapy with your big headphones. i just cant move on with my life for this reason. your gone and no one can fix it. every ones right, its not good bye forever. it IS see you later. when i get there, i promise i will talk to you and get to know you one hundred percent better. i feel like my life is going all wrong. i know that i didn't know you. but it feels like a HUGE HUGE part of my life just left and blew out the window. when i saw you..how i wished i could have been a best friend to you. i'll always remember your big headphones and a stare so blank. the shocking part...i will ALWAYS know..you never turned anyone down. && i never had the nerves to get to know you, my best friend knew you..tasha. and i have been hanging with her...she is so lost. and so are the other friends and your family. touch down on them and lead them through. give them the extra push they need to step out of the rough spots. give them an extra breath when they can't breath or walk any longer. your our hope and our lives.
my life is torn. without you..i feel like its all gone. i feel like a part of me is gone and i will never be the same. i think and pray about you only constantly.
your here...we all feel it. your here.
may you Rest In Peace Brady.
we will definitely see you soon.
we love you. its a immeasurable amount.

~ Anonymous, WyomingMy thoughts and prayers are with all of Brady's family......Death is such a hard concept to understand, especially when people are so young and still have so much more life to live...here is a poem that brought me a little peace when my brother died.
~When someone who was too young too die
Is taken away without a reason why
The angels sing, the angels cry
The tears that fall are not tears at all
But memories that will never die
When angels cry there is no pain
Just a never-ending constant rain
Suffering, there is no more
Just glory and safety to all
When angels cry
The whole world knows
They gather the tears up like
Delicate petals from a rose
The scent from each one destroys all fears
When angels cry
People try to understand
How someone too young could
Be placed under the great Creator's hand
The answer to this question may never be known
When angels cry crystal tears
We glance up and have no fears
For that person who was too young to die
Is now also an angel
Singing their songs of mourning
And crying their tears of memory
Up in the sky

~ Anonymous, WyomingI had many encounters with Brady while he was hanging out with Dalton, I was the neighbor girl that would always give them rides so they would not have to walk and carry their skateboards, lol. Even though I may have not been close with Brady, I could feel his energy and his charisma. He was such a good looking kid, and he will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.
~ Mikah Knopp, NevadaR.I.P Brady.......you will be missed but you will always be in our hearts...... :(
~ Anonymous, WyomingI keep reminding myself that this is not goodbye. i will see you again when my time comes. it still feels like your here. i know others feel it. you are still alive. in spirit you are still with us. your presence i know helps your family along everyday. you touched a lot of hearts, and i am so glad i got to know you. i don't think i had ever seen you angry. if anything went wrong you would shrug it off and go on. you were not like most people and took little things too seriously. you were a great friend to me. dude Bam mangera signed this thing. i wish you could have met him in real life. that would have been a great story to tell all of us.
your stories were the best to here. especially that one of you and tianna driving and hitting a deer. i remember the day you told me about that. you were laughing so hard you could barely tell me. tianna was so mad at you.
i keep thinkin about the good times we have had, like by the twin bridges when tianna freaked out about the train. or when i got out of the truck, and i wanted to jump in the river cuz it was hot. haha. i will always have those memories. i remember when we were parked, not in, but outside of the motocross track and we could not stop laughing. i don't even remember what was so damn funny.
it's going to be weird in seventh hour. i still think im gonna go to class and be prepared to here your smart ass comments. you could always make someone laugh. you were the greatest comic i had ever met. you could have done your own show. but im sure your up in heaven, laughing at all of us, telling us we are dumbass's. yeah..i know.
well, brady this is not goodbye. this is see you later. ill see you again.
i miss you brady. you were such a funny guy, a great friend, a kick ass brother to casey and kelsey, and i am sure a wonderful son.
~ Tasah Merchen, WyomingR.I.P. Brady. You will be missed.
~ Lane George, Wyoming
Brady, you were a great guy and I know that quiet well, you were a good friend and I'm sure a GREAT son. I pray for you and your family in hope they are doing okay. I know that your death effected the whole town of Douglas, even those who did not know you. But remember this you are loved by many people. I hope that you will not forget that and that we all miss you. So when I was thinking i found a poem just for you. Rest In Peace Brady Patterson.
We little knew that morning that God was going to call your name,
In life we loved you dearly; in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you; you did not go alone,
For part of us went with you, the day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories; your love is still our guide,
And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.
Our chain is broken now, and nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.
~ Brianna, Wyoming
