Brandon... I can't believe I am here writing in your memory. From 'BB' to Brandon I have so many great memories with you. Even though we grew apart, you never left my heart! I knew I always had a friend in you no matter what journey in life we were in. You turned into an amazing man for your wife and children. You two were blessed to have one another. Your silly jokes, contagious smile, and outgoing humor will never be forgotten! Your personality and extrovert nature was truly one of a kind. Even your passion and love for music influenced me; introducing me to bands I still listen to today! Flyleaf, AFI, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Chevelle, too many to name and I can't forget your long hair you used to have! Hehe.. You were nothing short of a good, honest, true friend and I am honored to say I knew you and was able to see your growth into the man you became. You will forever be in my heart <3. Morgan, stay strong sweet lady. You and your children are in God's hands! God Bless you. RIP Brandon Bauhan.

Whenever I work my shift in CVS Nederland, Brandon comes To pharmacy and check us if we were ok… He is such a joyous and optimistic face and hearing that he has gone was shocking to me… Rest In Peace my friend.

I have too many great memories of Brandon. Most of which are inside jokes or in the moment something we found funny. Brandon loved to have attention on him and he was always doing something to keep that attention. Some people can be annoying when they try to do that, but never Brandon. Everyone enjoyed his personality so much that he was never annoying. He will be missed. My heart goes out to you Morgan. Stay strong.
Alix August 18, 2021
You were just an all around great guy. Your smile was contagious, over the top friendly, and loved our girl Morgan and your babies so so much. You made lots of TikToks that cracked me up and thankful we can go back and watch them. I am so blessed to have met you because I have seen countless number of people saying great things about you and that goes to show how great of a person you were. Praying everyday for your family and friends. Time to start jamming with Jesus. :notes: :microphone:

I miss you tremendously. You were such a badass and one of my best friends.

Oh sweet BB….where do I begin?!?! Thank you for being the cousin you were to me. I knew I always had a friend in you. No matter how long we went without talking, when we ran in to each other, we picked right up where we left off. It was like no time had passed. You never judged me, you ALWAYS encouraged me. You always gave me such a huge smiling face with your head cocked to the side when you seen me. It was such a contagious smile. No matter what I was dealing with, I immediately felt joy. You were definitely one of a kind. The world has sure lost a REAL GOOD one. I feel sorry for the ones that didn’t get to meet you, I’m grateful for all of our memories. The shows we would put on at our grandparents house, the wrestling videos you and our brothers would make. Then when we reunited in middle school we were so excited and promised and vowed never to go that long without seeing or talking to each other again. Now here we are. I’m having to let you go. I know you were greeted by Nonnie and Popoo and that is the only thing that somewhat eases my pain. I love you “cuz”. Thank you for simply being you!!!! This one really hit hard……

A true tragedy of a brilliant and open man taken too soon from his beautiful wife and kids. Its been nine years of know these two from their start. I knew Brandon loved Morgan the first couple shifts we all worked together. I remember his quick whit and laidback open nature. It was a breathe of fresh air having him on your team. Sorry I'll never get to chat with you again bud.

Brandon. My Immediate boss. We worked together in Human Resource. He was someone who has an open door policy for all his employees no matter what their problem. He treated everyone with dignity and respect that worked at Target 1877. He was my ETL of HR but managed the whole store. He loved his wife and children and spoke of them heartedly all the time. Bye B. Gone too soon.
Rimina V August 17, 2021
I had the honor of meeting and working with Brandon at Target. He was so laid back and cool about everything. Despite the hectic and stressful retail environment for everybody, Brandon was always happy and smiling. You could see he was so busy, but always had the time for his team, he was so human and ready to sit down and listen to your “issues”. The last time we sat down in his office I was quitting and I didn’t put my two-week notice and he was so concerned that it could affect my future employment, and he so graciously offered to fix it for me. Finally, I saw him at Dillards, he was smiling ear to ear l, so full of love and excitement, he said he was looking for a Push present for his wife he needed ideas…. OMG, I’ll stop here. RIP and fly high Brandon!

Brandon was a great guy. He was a Store Manager at CVS when I met him a few years ago in Nederland. He was a very respectful young man and had a great sense of humor. Whenever I visited his store he always made me laugh. Rest Easy and in Peace my Friend.
Drake Broussard August 17, 2021
Brandon was such a kind hearted person and would go to the ends of earth for anyone no matter who you were. He always saw the best in people and believed in every single person he knew. I had the pleasure to work for Brandon for only a short amount of time but he always told me I could do anything. You will be greatly missed.
Ashley Johnson August 16, 2021
One of the best. No matter how many years had passed, catching up at CVS or Target or wherever, he always made anyone feel like they mattered. Will never forget the BC skatepark days of going barefoot on stage. He was also an amazing friend in high school. Just the random “sup” head nod and a goofy face in a crowded hallway would get a smile from any friend or teacher. My prayers are with his family. This is a hard one.

First I want to say to Brandon's wife and children i am so sorry for your loss, the world won't shine as bright without him. Your family is in my prayers and our whole target team is truly heartbroken for you. Brandon has always been one of my favorite teamleads, he was always willing to help his team and would be ear to listen if you were having a bad day or go out of his way to make a joke and make you laugh, our store will never be the same without him. Im praying for peace and comfort for your family, i hope they know you brought true joy to everyone who worked with you.
