Yesterday, we lost a brother, a father, a grandfather, and a son,” Shelby wrote along several photos of Brandon throughout the years. “Brandon Blackstock was an irreplaceable part of our family—funny, bright, and full of life—and he will be deeply missed.”
“He taught me so much, leaving behind countless cherished memories that I will hold onto forever,” the race car driver continued. “For every treasured moment we shared, there are so many more we’ll never get to make together, but I know you’ll still be there. Every hunt, every flight, and in the everyday moments of life, I’ll feel your presence.”
If you didn’t know, Brandon and Shelby share the same dad Narvel Blackstock.
“And although it may annoy you, you’ll have to watch me do it all just a little better, a little smoother, and —let’s be honest— looking far more handsome than you ever could in the process. 😏” Shelby concluded. “We will always miss you, Brandon, and we will never stop loving, remembering and celebrating you.”
