According to his family, “Brandan was a very tender hearted and a loving person. He lived life to the fullest and always tried to make everyone happy. He had a smile that would light up the room and he is going to be dearly missed and will forever be in our hearts.”
He was preceded in death by his grandmother, Violet Townsend and Uncle Bill Hart.
