BRENDAN ROBERT HENRY MOMAN It is with profound sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of Brendan Robert Henry Moman on November 26, 2013 in his parents' arms at the Stollery Children's Hospital in Edmonton. Brendan came into this world on September 17, 2013 and was faced with a battle from day one. He was born with a congenital heart defect that required him to have a heart transplant but unfortunately one did not become available in time. In his short time here, he endured more tests and procedures than a normal person would in their lifetime, but he showed us what a true fighter was and he will always be our hero for that. His sweetness captured the hearts of many people in his short 10 weeks of life including family and friends, as well as the staff and close friends at the hospital who became our family away from home. Brendan is survived by his parents, Allison and Dallas, and big brother Dawson, grandparents Jim and Donna Stanley, uncle Darrin (Heather) Stanley, cousin Carson. Grandmother Lorna Moman, auntie Alberta (Bernie) Stoneham, auntie Noblee (Shane) Elliott, cousins Lisa (Trevor) Sund and children Annika, Espen and Ivy, Renee (Matt) Jackson and daughter Addison, Jennine (Travis) Campbell and son Jase, Chelsea Elliott and many more extended family and friends too numerous to mention. Brendan was predeceased by his grandfather Albert Moman and other extended family members who will be there to take good care of him until we meet again. Memorial service will be held on Saturday, December 14 at 2:00 p.m. at the Eriksdale Rec Centre with Pastor Bill Watson officiating. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Brendan's memory to the Variety Children's Heart Centre, in care of Children's Hospital Foundation of Manitoba, CE501-840 Sherbrook Street, Winnipeg, MB R3A 1S1 (www.goodbear.mb.ca) or to the NICU, in care of Stollery Children's Hospital Foundation, 1502 College Plaza, 8215-112th Street, Edmonton, AB T6G 2C8 (www.stollerykids.com). Also in his memory please consider organ donation and sign your organ donor cards. So many people can benefit from one unselfish act and could help bring immense happiness to a family similar to our own. We would also like to extend a huge thank you to everyone who supported us over the last three months. If love and prayers were enough to heal someone, Brendan would still be with us. "I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living, my baby you'll be."

  • Allison and Dallas and Dawson: I can't begin to say how much I wish things had turned out differently for your precious Brendan. He gave it his all and so did both of you. He may not have been lucky to born with an imperfect heart, but he was so very fortunate to have had you as his parents being there with him throughout, fighting for him and loving him so fully ... as you always will. I'm glad to have known you, however brief. Please take good care. Garry - Posted by: Garry Robinson () on: Dec 14, 2013

  • Don't Tell Me, Please don't tell me you know how I feel, Unless you have lost your child too, Please don't tell me my broken heart will heal, Because that is just not true, Please don't tell me my son is in a better place, Though it is true, I want him here with me, Don't tell me someday I'll hear his voice, see his face, Beyond today I cannot see, Don't tell me it is time to move on, Because I cannot, Don't tell me to face the fact he is gone, Because denial is something I can't stop, Don't tell me to be thankful for the time I had, Because I wanted more, Don't tell me when I am my old self you will be glad, I'll never be as I was before, What you can tell me is you will be here for me, That you will listen when I talk of my child, You can share with me my precious memories, You can even cry with me for a while, And please don't hesitate to say his name, Because it is something I long to hear every day. Friend, please realize that I can never be the same, But if you stand by me, you may like the new person I become someday. My thoughts and prayers are with you. You are not alone. - Posted by: Rosa Matos () on: Dec 11, 2013
