Brandon Nevarez-Cates

James Brandon Nevarez Cates passed away December 6, 2023. He was born July 19, 2006 in El Paso, Texas.

Brandon is an all-out, genuine person. He loved being around family and friends, even more so his brothers. The love of his life was his Volkswagen GTI.

Brandon is the person you would go to, to put a smile on your face. He would always walk in the room with a ray of sunshine. He was always so happy. He loved working on cars with his dad and his brothers they would working from day light to night time. He would always put in his all to his car. He also loved being out on the dirt bikes hitting jumps and everything. A funny memory pops up every time we think of him riding dirt bikes. There was this one time the boys were all out riding dirt bikes and Brandon always had to go the hardest and there was a time he flew over a jump and came down on a Wheeley and had Wheelied over and broke his tailbone. That still didn’t stop him he still kept going and was back on a dirt bike less than a week later. He always loved to go out and fish with his boys I bet if they could stay there forever, they would. A good memory that his mom loves is teaching him how to drive. Brandons mom Analee had taught Brandon how to drive on ice, all they did was do donuts on the corner on the road that was a moment that was cherished and enjoyed when his mom. Another good memory with his mom is when he was laying on the bed and his dog buster came running through the hallway and jumped over them and all they could do was laugh. Brandon ‘s mom Analee says that he is her favorite son and she loves him so much. Brandon will forever be in our hearts and never forgotten, he had a big impact on everyone’s life that he knew.
