Passed away peacefully on Saturday, March 6, 2021 at the Peterborough Regional Health Centre, at the age of 18. Brent is survived by his loving parents Simon Dadds and Chia-Wen Hsu. Beloved nephew of Melvin Hsu, Vivian Hsu (Tim Giddens), Yi-Wen Hsu (Stefan Egge), Vivien Dadds, Ilana Dadds (Dayna Van Caeyzeele), Stephanie Dadds, and Michelle (John) Verheul. Cherished cousin of Robert Egge, Katherine Egge, Xavier Verheul, Alexander Verheul, and Rowan Verheul. Grandson of John and Elaine Dadds, and Chen Hwei Hsu. Brent leaves behind many friends, teachers, and coaches who worked with him at Lakefield College School. Many people will miss Brent in his white-water paddling community. Brent was a student at Queens University and an active member with Kawartha Whitewater Paddlers. He enjoyed skiing, kayaking, and travel. The family wishes many thanks to the incredibly dedicated and supportive team at the ICU at PRHC for looking after Brent in his final days, and to our family and friends who provided support during this time. Cremation has taken place, and due to COVID, a Celebration of Life has been postponed until further notice. Brent has been laid to rest at Little Lake Cemetery.

Dear Chai-Wen and Simon,
Having lost our dear son at the age 32 about 6 month ago, Maureen and myself are beyond words to express our sympathies for your loss and what you now have to experience. We have found a modicum of relief in sharing the burden with others who we have come to know. I hope that this is true with your profound loss at this time. May you continue to find solace from many sources in the days to come as you navigate your lives without Brent.

Brent was a well-liked student in grade 8. When we went on our end-of-year trip to Camp Olympia, I remember he brought a hotdog costume and wore it for 2 days! It was hilarious! I thought to myself, "That is one cool kid!"
I am so sorry to hear of his passing. My thoughts are with his parents, family, friends, and teachers.
