Brandon D. O’Dell, of Westmoreland, leaving us all too soon at a young age of 21, died in a tragic snowmobile accident on January 28, 2022, with his friends at his side, doing everything they could to save him.

Brando had a huge heart and so much to offer, always willing to lend a hand. The room lit up when ”Brando” walked in. He was talented, busy and had beautiful life skills of an entrepreneur, buying and selling motorized vehicles. He had so many great friends and loved to have a great time. His goal in life was to offer good advice and bring happiness to all. Brandon was a true legacy who hustled for whatever he desired in life.
