Brandon Mitchner had his entire life ahead of him. He was only 22 years old. He had an associate's degree in marketing. He was a young entrepreneur who was building an online clothing business where he would sell T-shirts, sweatshirts, leggings, and hats. He was kind, intelligent, funny, and honest.

On June 28, 2014, Brandon Mitchner, went out drinking with some friends. They took a party bus and stopped at a bar. According to security footage, Brandon and a friend can be seen walking toward the river on South Street. Seconds later, his friend is seen walking away alone. Brandon stumbled off the embankment and fell into the river. While Brandon's death was ruled an accidental drowning, his family feels something more sinister occurred.

Brandon had a giant heart and loved to help others. He lived by the motto "Make it Your Mission", encouraging himself and others to make it a mission to do the right thing.
