I apologize if this has been addressed already, I did a search and could not find anything. Evidently, he has passed away.

Brandon Filip, 36

RIP

Not even knowing the circumstances or even anything about the man, I can say this is tragic. Rest in Peace fellow Hokie.

I was talking with him about buying a jersey from him. It was like a kick in the chest knowing I had just talked to him a couple weeks before. Can't imagine what a parent has to go through informing Twitter their son has passed away on his own account.

This was very sad news, indeed. I dug up the old thread he started when the Black Uni campaign was launched, but there was some stupid stuff in the comments that got OT and a bit heated (tangents, they'll get after ya), so I didn't post it. I only knew Brandon virtually, but he was fun to interact with here and on Twitter. Not everyone supported our #BlackUni4BlackFriday idea, but you gotta love his heart and desire to do something he believed in on behalf of Hokie Nation.

Rest in peace, fellow Hokie and TKPer.
