Brighton was the most caring, sweet, goofy, amazing person. He made life brighter and more enjoyable every day he was in it. Being his aunt was one of the best things that has ever happened to me. His love and appreciation for his family was incredible. I loved our dates nights when he was little and driving him crazy telling everyone we were going on a date night. He didn't know how to be anything but chill and fun and go with the flow from day one. I miss him more than words can describe and wish I had more time with him, but will cherish the time I did have because I know I am lucky to love him and be loved by him.

I remember this one time in Spanish before a test I was freaking out because I don’t do well when I need to speak in Spanish especially in front of people and ended up having a panic attack but he somehow knew the right things to say and helped make sure I was ok after. He got me to calm down and encouraged me. He was always super sweet and kind but that is how our friendship started and I think about it often. It’s one friendship that I even remember the start and will never forget.

I met Brighton in math last year, I was struggling and he never failed to make me smile when I was upset. His smile could brighten anyone’s day.

Brighton was someone that didn't know when to give up, and that's what I admired most. He and I had many common ideas, and we weren't afraid to talk about them. So long fellow freedom fighter.
