BRANDON PHELPS
Brandon Michael Phelps was born on Feb. 1, 1992 to Mysta Phelps. Brandon was brought into this world full of love and life. Mysta and Brandon found Mark in 1994 and became a happy family of three.
As a young boy, with his wild blonde hair, he was always on the go with a smile on his face. Over the years he eventually grew into the fine young man that we all knew and cherished. He had many interests and goals in life.
Brandon loved skiing with his grandpa Dennis, going camping and boating with his mom, dad and brother, and most of all rock hunting with grandma and grandpa Jackie and Ronnie. He loved listening to his tunes and hanging out with his friends Brad and Milla.
Brandon's goal in life was to go into Wind Generation school and stay close to his family. He loved being a big brother to Chase and was truly the greatest son we could have been blessed to have. He was not only our son, but our best friend and he will be dearly missed.
Brandon passed away March 17, 2010, at the age of 18. He is survived by his mother and father Mysta and Mark Chisholm; his brother Chase Chisholm; grandparents Ron and Jackie Thomas, Dennis and Carol Chisholm and Julia Stanton; great grandparents Effie Rodriguez, Katherine Stanton and Donna Thomas; aunts and uncles Mike London, Wayne Chisholm, Nicky Phelps, Kelly Thomas, Bruce and Katrina Rude, Angela Chisholm and Judy Thomas; and many extended family and friends.
A funeral service was held at 2 p.m. on Sunday, March 28, 2010, at Gardner Funeral Home in White Salmon and he was laid to rest in the White Salmon Cemetery.
