Brandon Tate draws inspiration from family

Posted Oct 7, 2005

Brandon Tate has always looked up to his older brother, Barry, as a source of inspiration, advice, sympathy -- whatever he needs at the time. Barry Tate considers Brandon, a year his junior, to be someone he can always trust and confide in, no questions asked. Sibling rivalry apparently skipped these two. The brothers from Burlington are now separated by about 150 miles, but they still talk two or three times a day. (Greensboro News & Record)
