Brandon Lee Tenison, 18, of Garrison, Texas passed away on June 15, 2019. Born October 19, 2000. Brandon is the son of Kevin and Kendra (Driscoll) Tenison. Due to inclement weather this morning visitation will be held at First Baptist Church Garrison tonight from 6-8pm. All services for Tenison will be held at the church now. Funeral service will be held Thursday, June 20, 2019 at 2pm at First Baptist Church, 276 W Magnolia Ave., Garrison, Texas with Bro. Jack Brown officiating. Interment will follow in McKnight Cemetery, Cushing, Texas.
Brandon grew up in Garrison and was a Senior at Garrison High School where he was full of Bulldog Pride. An avid football player, being under those Friday night lights and wearing #34 was one of his greatest passions. His love for the game was evident in every down he played. Brandon also really enjoyed spending time outdoors. Much of his spare time was spent hunting and fishing. Even though he was only 18, Brandon was a skilled welder. He had always been fond of tinkering with things and learning such a trade as welding allowed him to put skill and intrigue to work.
Brandon had an energy that radiated onto others and would overflow any room with joy and laughter. He breathed life into his friends, family and those he barely even knew. Brandon had such a warm and welcoming personality that he never met a stranger. He was always selfless and ready to lend a helping hand whenever the occasion was to arise. His enthusiasm and light will shine long after he is gone in the innumerable memories that his family, friends and classmates will treasure for eternity.
