Brenden’s high school teachers fondly remember him as intelligent, kind, witty, and respectful. He could brighten up a classroom with his presence. His many friends described him as caring, loyal, quirky, goofy, and as a prankster.

He enjoyed “tinkering” with projects or scoping out a new or better method to do things. At Cut Bank High School he participated in numerous activities. Amongst them were golf, wrestling, and football. His popularity was evident in his being Student Body President, and he loved his role as the self-appointed CEO of the Livewire school newspaper.
