Brendan Allen Tingue, 18, of Keizer, Oregon, formerly of Albany, Oregon, died April 26, 2018.
Brendan was born on March 11, 2000 in Albany, Oregon to Julie Scott and Allen Tingue. He was 18 years old. He was a senior at McNary High School in Keizer, Oregon.
Brendan was a kind person, who enjoyed making others laugh. He had many interests; playing video games, listening to music, attending concerts, and spending time with family and friends. He disliked tuna fish sandwiches and being told to get a haircut. It is impossible to sum up a young man so caring, genuine, spirited, hilarious, and stubborn. These qualities were obvious to everyone around him and he will be truly missed.
Brendan’s true passion in life was music. He was inspired by many bands like The Beatles, Green Day, Modest Mouse, The Foo Fighters, David Bowie, and many others. He was a talented musician. His interest in music started at a young age with the guitar. He was self-taught, picking up pointers from family and friends. Eventually he began writing his own music and performing on stage.
Brendan is survived by his mother Julie Scott and Jeff Rach, father Allen Tingue, and brother Nathan Tingue; grandmother Brenda Dunigan, grandfather Bob Scott and his wife Joanne; grandmother Rena Spinks; and many aunts, uncles, cousins and close friends.
He is preceded in death by his grandfather Ron Dunigan, great grandmother Audrey Branch, and great grandfather Ted Branch.
you taught me so much about music. you showed me so much love and kindness. i wish we had spent more time together. i think of you everytime i listen to failure, i'm glad i got to tell you they finally clicked for me. i know there's somewhere beautiful for you. i miss you.
You were a great cousin, and I looked up to you like a brother. Not one day will go by and I won’t think about you, your love for music has inspired me to do so much. YOU inspired me to do so much more and I wish I could say thank you. I will always miss our adventures together, and listening to your music. I’ll always love you like a sibling.
There's never a day that goes by that I don't think about you, you were always there for me on my bad days; I Love you Brendan .
Searched for my Portland, OR neighbors Meliss and Allen and got this page. Shocked and sad. RIP young man. If Allen's email is available please share mine with him: editor@ernestdempsey.com. Hope his life is peaceful and healing from this great loss.
My condolences to the family for such a dear loss. May God who can bind up the wounds of the brokenhearted be a support for you during this time of sorrow. – Psalms 147:3
