He was just 12 years old when he began pushing his lawnmower around town, later upgrading to a bicycle with an attached trailer and then finally, a mower, according to his obituary on the Mastapeter Memorial Home website.
Brandon became known around town as "the little boy with the green tractor," ultimately starting his own law mowing business, BS Landscaping.
But Brandon died on Sunday, June 8, at just 20 years old.
When he wasn't cutting grass, Santos enjoyed riding dirt bikes, working on cars, jet skiing and fishing, his obituary reads.
