Brendon Michael Hunt

On April 2, 2024, Brendon Michael Hunt, 44, passed away suddenly and peacefully in his hometown of Edmonton, Alberta. He was proudly born to Robert and Geraldine Hunt on February 1, 1980. He is survived by his parents, Robert and Geraldine Hunt; his siblings, David Hunt (Kasha) and Carilynn Salisbury (Conor); nephews, Jake, Levi, Cam, and Drew, and niece, Emery. He cherished his numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends, that were spread near and far. He is predeceased by many close family members and his beloved dog, Rocco.

Brendon's love for the outdoors was evident from an early age through into adulthood. He had a strong passion for fishing, skidooing, and spending time at his house at the lake with his dog, family, and friends. He was a great hockey player and cherished those youth filled days of playing sports greatly. He was known for his love of motorbikes, his willingness to help others with any project, and his love of country music, just to name a few.

He lit up every room he entered.

As a skilled Ironworker with Local 720 for over 17 years, he approached his work with dedication and precision, often securing leadership roles quickly. It is a profession he enjoyed and made many contributions to, as well.

Brendon's memory will forever live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him. May you rest in peace. We will miss you and love you always…

~ You’ll Be There ~ By George Strait

From the beginning of creation

I think our maker had a plan

For us to leave these shores

And sail beyond the sand

And let the good light guide us

Through the waves and the wind

To the beaches in the world

Where we have never been

And we'll climb up on the mountain

Y'all we'll let our voices ring

And those who've never tried it

They'll be the first to sing

Whoa, my, my

I'll see you on the other side

If I make it

And it might be a long hard ride

But I'm gonna take it

Sometimes it seems that I don't have a prayer

I let the weather take me anywhere

But I know that I wanna go

Where the streets are gold

'Cause you'll be there

Oh, my, my…
