In Memory of Brendan

Brendan's life was shaped by three great passions: family, music, and golf. A proud Irishman, he was a scratch golfer who played exclusively with hickory-shafted clubs from the 1920s—a true testament to his love of tradition and craftsmanship.

His passion for music was just as strong. A loyal subscriber to Victoria Playhouse Petrolia and Huron Country Playhouse, Brendan never missed a chance to take in a great show. He especially loved show tunes, opera and its soaring sopranos, and the fresh energy of young voices.

To honor his memory and his love of music, we are proud to present these annual awards, celebrating the young performers who brought him so much joy.
