Brandon’s greatest passion was motocross. He was often seen out on his bike with his buddies doing what he loved most. He rode that bike with such ease and no fear. He felt free from everything when he was on his bike. He raced with the Atlantic Motocross community for several years and was always a fierce competitor and was successful in winning titles over the years.

Brandon was so proud of the home he had purchased a few years back and he put a lot of hard work and sweat into making it his home. Brandon attended LE Shaw, Horton and NSCC. During this time he played soccer, softball, hockey and racing motocross. He built many lifelong friendships with his school, motocross and sport friends who will miss him greatly.

Brandon grew up on a farm and loved the farming way of life. He loved animals. At home he had chickens, ducks, fish and especially his beloved cat Finn. Brandon will be remembered by many for his infectious and beautiful smile and his loving and carefree spirit.
