As family and friends mourn the sudden loss of Braydon Allan Van Buuren, our hearts are filled with many happy memories of the love, compassion, and kindness he brought to the world in his short time with us.

Braydon loved with every fibre of his being even though he sometimes had difficulty expressing it. He showed his love through his generosity of self, his love for family - especially, she will tell you - his sister Ashlynne.

He married the love of his life Serena, May 2, 2015. They loved to play soccer together and lived on the farm, which was a dream for Braydon; they later moved to Coaldale. The Van Dyk family welcomed Braydon to their family with open arms; they enjoyed many happy memories together.

Braydon really enjoyed the outdoors, camping, spending time with his dog Quinn and - she will tell you - with his sister. The pair shared a quirky and always entertaining sense of humour.

"Boo" had a special bond with his Grandma Louisa and greatly missed his Grandpa Coenie, and Grandma and Grandpa T.

He worked this summer at a campground in central Alberta and loved it. He always took great pride in his work and was a Red Seal floor installer in Lethbridge.

Braydon, we love you.

You have left a hole in our hearts we will never fill.

Until we are together again, you will be missed by many including your Dad and Mom, Allan and Carol; sister Ashlynne (Eric), niece Raylynne, and nephew Radlee; his wife Serena and the Van Dyk family; Grandma Louisa; Aunt Cathy (George); Uncle Glenn (Kristi); Aunt Connie; Kala (Chris) and many beloved and beautiful cousins and friends.
