With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved Brandy Nicole Richardson Graham, who left us far too soon on April 16, 2025. Born on August 16, 1983, Brandy truly embodied the phrase “salt of the earth” and filled our lives with her radiant light. A devoted Christian, she loved God with an unwavering spirit and showed her faith through her kindness and compassion for others.
Brandy was a strong-willed fighter, independent and determined, yet always the life of the party. Brandy was a beautician and had developed a loyal clientele. She set the bar academically as she completed her courses in record time with the highest scores that had been achieved up to that point. She had a unique ability to lift others up, often being the shoulder to lean on. Her kindness knew no bounds, as she took care of those around her and brought sunshine into their lives. Her love for her daughter was boundless; she cherished every moment with her family and friends.
