About Brennan

Brennan’s infectious personality, engaging smile and enjoyment of life was cherished by everyone around him. Brennan was a 2004 graduate of Moorestown High School and 2008 graduate of the University of Richmond. He was happily living in Manhattan, his career as a Certified Financial Analyst was on an upward trajectory, and he had recently married, when he was shockingly diagnosed with adrenocortical cancer in 2015. As a seemingly healthy young man, competing in triathlons, and climbing mountains with his Dad, Brennan was determined to beat his cancer. He leaned on his friends and family to support the fight of his life. Despite his best efforts, and those of his healthcare team and loved ones, Brennan died a mere eight months later, not long after celebrating his 30th birthday.

Despite his young age, Brennan jammed a lot into his life, and greatly impacted the lives of those around him. Once a friend of Brennan’s, you were always a friend. Brennan fought his disease in the same way he tackled challenges in the professional and athletic arenas: with composure, resilience and humor that made an impression on all who were lucky enough to know him.
