During his time with the team, he built lasting friendships with his teammates and coaches, particularly with Coach Gabe, whom he admired and respected.

Brayden took great pride in his health and fitness journey, nurturing a passion for working out from an early age. He enjoyed lifting weights and often showcased the results of his "gains" and hard work. In addition to his fitness pursuits, he relished moments spent gaming with his brothers and friends.

He was deeply loved by his Nanu, Pam Burns, and had a close-knit family that included three aunts: Sherry Paul (Johnny), Kim Bryan (James), and Jessica Burns; as well as an uncle, Joe "Moose" Tucker (Nicole). Brayden will be remembered fondly by his cousins, Layla, Luke, Faith, Beau, Caitlyn, Traie, Austin, Keegan, Sam, Ashelyn, and Brandon, along with his loyal fur brother, Brutus.
