It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Brendan Lennard of Kitchener, Ontario. Brendan, a beloved barber at The Green Room Barbershop and a passionate musician, died unexpectedly, leaving behind a community that loved and admired him.
He was just beginning to flourish both professionally and personally, and his sudden passing has left a void in the hearts of everyone who knew him. Originally from Toronto, Brendan made Kitchener his home in recent years, where he touched countless lives through his easygoing spirit, creative talents, and unwavering kindness.
He was not only known for his skill behind the barber’s chair but for his ability to make anyone feel at ease. A true craftsman at The Green Room Barbershop, Brendan brought style, confidence, and warmth to his clients—many of whom quickly became friends. His chair was a place of laughter, connection, and comfort.
Brendan was also a dedicated musician, playing drums for the local band Weigh The Anchor. Music was one of his greatest passions, and he brought an unmistakable energy to every performance.
Whether performing on stage or jamming with friends, Brendan expressed himself through rhythm with a joy that was contagious. His presence in the music scene was felt deeply, not only for his talent but for his genuine camaraderie and enthusiasm for the craft.
He studied Marketing and Advertising at Conestoga College, where he further honed his creativity and communication skills. Brendan’s multifaceted talents reflected a person driven not just by ambition, but by an authentic love of connecting with others.
He had an eye for design, a mind for strategy, and a heart for people. To those fortunate enough to know him, Brendan was more than just a barber or a musician—he was a beacon of light, always ready with a joke, a listening ear, or a kind word.
His friend and fellow BTTB (Back to the Basics) Alumni described him as “an easy-going guy with a fun, loving attitude and a smile for everyone.” These words echo the sentiments of many who have been left heartbroken by his passing.
Brendan’s sudden departure is a stark reminder of how precious life truly is. As one tribute movingly said, “The world is just a little bit more dim today.” His legacy is one of joy, creativity, and compassion.
He had a rare gift for making people feel seen, heard, and valued—a trait that will be deeply missed by his wide circle of friends, colleagues, and loved ones. Brendan is survived by his partner, Alaya White, with whom he shared a life filled with love, laughter, and mutual support.
Their relationship was one of deep connection and mutual inspiration. Alaya, along with Brendan’s family, friends, coworkers, and bandmates, are now facing a difficult road ahead as they grieve a life taken far too soon.
As we remember Brendan, we hold close the countless moments he shared with those around him—the stories, the songs, the haircuts, the laughs. His memory will continue to live on in the lives he touched and the community he helped build.
May his soul rest in peace, and may his legacy continue to inspire kindness, creativity, and connection.
