I remember this smile. He was a nice and always helpful person. He helped keep my builders honest. RIP Brendan.

A lovely brother. So easy going and Joe’s excellent fishing buddy. Nothing was a problem and always a good listener. We will miss him dreadfully. RIP little brother.

Deepest condolences from the Moyle family (Nis, Ralph and Maya). Words cannot express what an amazing person he was. Rest in peace, Brendan

Brendan, a good mate, kind, caring, nothing was a fuss, easy going guy. He was a valuable part of our SYC social committee for many years. If something needed building, he did it. One in particular was the Eiffel Tower he made for our ‘Touch of French Ball’ which I think was auctioned off it was that good. Sailing and partying with Brendan was always great fun. A good mate, gone too soon. RIP Brendan. You will be sorely missed. X
Sincere condolences to Kirsten and families. Love Robyn x

Brendan (Boxie),

Farewell my old friend. From the time we met & became friends at De La Salle to the many laughs & hair-raising moments we spent in our youth & early twenties.

I always loved your fun & laconic approach to life, your authenticity & generosity, your inquisitive mind & capacity to do anything you put your mind to.

Your legacy & impact is everywhere & will continue to live through your family & friends. You will be sadly missed.

Until we meet again, cheers, Michael & Margaret

How you will be missed Brendan. We’ve seen many local boats being repaired here on our travels & instantly thought of you.
Our deep condolances to Kirsten & your extended family. We trust you all have many happy memories to.sustain you in this difficult time.
May you rest peacefully now.

“Some people come into our lives and quietly stay…” — and he was one of them.

A kind, caring man of few words, he never needed to speak loudly to be heard.

Sending our love to Kirsten and his beautiful children.
He will be deeply missed.

Love Simon, Michelle, Patrick and Nicholas

My sincerest condolences to kirsten, lockie and family. Brendon was the gentlest of souls and will be very very missed by all who love him.

A quiet achiever, always willing to help. A man of few words but always caring and supportive. Truly a gentle soul and a wonderful brother. Will be sorely missed by many.

Brendan was quietly strong, endlessly patient, and full of love. He had a gift with the ability to make people feel truly acknowledged, not through grand gestures, but through his presence, his gentle smile, and the steady way he showed up for others.

His hands told stories of craftsmanship, care, and pride. Whether he was shaping wood into something beautiful or building boats, there was a quiet grace in everything he created. His carpentry wasn’t just a skill, it was an extension of his character with precise, grounded, and deeply thoughtful.

His legacy is not only in what he made with his hands but also in the kindness and calm. I will cherish our memories.

Love, Szeman
