fondly known as Bert, unexpectedly left this world on May 11, 2021 at the age of 38. Brandon fought his way into this world on October 17, 1982, 10 weeks earlier that expected. Even as a newborn he had determination to beat the odds. Being born prematurely, Brandon had many health issues of which he overcame. Brandon was a gentle soul with a big heart always ready and willing to help anyone in need – like being an Organ Donor. Brandon was a quiet guy and a deep-thinker, always having a kind and encouraging word to share, and the timing to know just when to share them with someone in need. His smile and laugh brought life to a room. A post on Brandon’s Facebook page pretty much says it all: “He could make people laugh and could make you smile when you felt like dying inside. Anyone who knew him, loved him.” He was always posting on Facebook motivational quotes and 3am thoughts, offering encouragement and planting seeds of hope for those in need. One of the last 3am thoughts he posted on Facebook Said:
Faith doesn’t always take you out of the problem,
Faith takes you through the problem.
Faith doesn’t always take away the pain,
Faith gives you the ability to handle the pain.
Faith doesn’t always take you out of the storm,
Faith calms you in the midst of the storm. Amen
Brandon was baptized into Christ on March 20, 1983. Brandon loved his family more than anything in the world. He was a joy to his mother, an avid supporter and defender of his siblings, a loving grandson, a special nephew, a fun and adventurous cousin, an extraordinary uncle, and a true friend. Brandon was a rock for his family and all who knew him. He will be terribly missed.
Brandon is Survived by his mother, Lisa Walsh of the home, siblings Garrick (his life-long best friend) and Tara Moeller, his uncle and aunts, his special niece Cameron, Madison and nephew Isaih many cousins and friends. He is preceded in death by his father, Michael Walsh, paternal and maternal grandparents, numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.

Brandon, my dear, sweet nephew. You were one of a kind, sweetheart. Such a unique young man. Words can’t even begin to express how much you were loved and how much you will be missed. I hope you’re settled in and enjoying a big bowl of your Grandma Raleigh’s chili. Forever in our hearts.
Love you forever and always!

Supposed to be Brandon
We offer our most sincere condolences to the family and friends of Brandon Michael Walsh, especially his mother (my sister) Lisa Walsh and brother (my nephew) Garrick Michael Walsh and his sister Tara Moeller. The day Brandon got his wings and soared to Heaven is the day that piece of my heart crumbled into a pile of rubble. It was an honor and privilege to serve as Brandon’s godmother for 38 years. We will forever cherish the time we had with Brandon. Try to remember that you are not alone. Hugs and love to all. Mike and Karla
