It is with heavy hearts we share the news of Devon Brady's passing. Devon was one of those people who lit up a room just by being there. He beat the odds time and again, facing life with a smile that could turn any day around.
Devon's journey was full of twists and turns. He tried his hands in many things before he found his groove in coding. Each interest he pursued showed just how passionate and curious he was about life.
As a hardcore gamer, Devon spent countless hours in the worlds of his favorite games, making friends from all over. His gaming wasn't just about beating levels or bosses, but about the laughs and late nights spent with friends online.
No matter if you met him once at a party, gamed with him into the wee hours, or were lucky enough to count him as a long-time friend, Devon made an impact. He was the soul of any gathering, and his easy going nature made us all feel like protecting him.
Devon was preceded in death by his grandmother, Dolores Brady. Devon leaves behind his mom, Darlene Bombalski (Kenneth), sister, Kelly Fanger (Nathaniel), beloved "brophews", Daymion (Brianne) & Dariyon Ward, extended family, his canine companion, Raider, a bunch of close friends, and his loyal Discord crew. Each relationship was dear to him, filled with moments of joy and support.
As we say goodbye to Devon, we're celebrating everything he brought into our lives: joy, laughter, and a sense of unity. Devon's way of bringing people together and making them feel special will forever inspire those who knew him. Though he is gone from our sight, he'll live on in our hearts and stories.
