Obituary

Brandon Jeffery Loveland passed suddenly early Saturday morning, October 3, 2020 from a pulmonary embolism at the age of 37.
Brandon was born June 30, 1983 in Provo, Utah to Jeff and Susan (Terry) Loveland.
From a young age he enjoyed sports, the outdoors, and anything mechanical. At age 13 he earned his Eagle Scout and through the Scouting program learned the principals of honesty, loyalty and patriotism which stayed with him throughout his life. When he was 16 he and his Dad built his first car together, a 1972 Oldsmobile Delta 88. He’s been an Oldsmobile guy ever since. Besides cars, Brandon had many other passions including guns, books, and politics.
He was an avid reader and learner. He graduated with honors from UVU with a Bachelor’s Degree in Political Science. He was involved with the local Republican party serving in various precinct roles and most recently as Treasurer for Utah County. Brandon was a gentle giant. He was a quiet, hardworking man who would do anything for family and friends in need. His kindness and generosity touched the lives of all who knew him. He will be greatly missed.
He is preceded in death by twin sisters, Stacy and Stephanie, grandparents McKay & Gwen Loveland and Floyd & Marian Terry, uncles and aunts Kyle & Michelle Terry, Katheryn Terry, Bradford Loveland, and cousin Abbie Lighthill.

Chairman, Utah County Republican Party
Fellow Republicans,
It is with great sadness that I have to send this communication. This morning we learned that our Treasurer, Brandon Loveland, had unexpectedly passed away. Brandon had long served in our Party as a Precinct Chair, Legislative District Chair and State Central Committee Member, among other volunteer positions. He worked to bring harmony to the Party and to help build an esprit de corps among our members. He worked tirelessly to see our candidates win and our ideas prevail.
Brandon had a passion for the United States Constitution. He had studied it and was always excited to discuss its contents and the freedoms that it protects. He was a true Patriot who wanted the best for our country.
Finally, Brandon was a kind human being with a great sense of humor. Brandon built relationships with all and encouraged everyone to succeed. He was best known for his incredible ability to make people laugh. Even in difficult and stressful situations, Brandon could bring a smile to people’s faces. In what is a trying time for our Country, I would ask each of you that knew Brandon to take a minute to remember him and his wonderful personality. I would also ask you to take a moment to say a prayer for those Brandon left behind. And in Brandon’s memory, to pray for our country and its leaders, especially President Trump as he deals with COVID-19. God Bless the United States of America.

I very much enjoyed and appreciated the time I got with Brandon to get to know him. We had several passions in common including most notably involvement in the community through politics, as well as automotive, and guns. He was always so fun and easy to talk and hang out with whether on the phone, via text, or in person. Hilarious, smart, kind, and witty are what comes to my mind when I think of my buddy Brandon. These are the things that I will remember him by.
We were going to attend the gun show this weekend together. He was trying to fit it into his already busy plans. Brandon had told me he’s working his second job, had a tee time at a local golf course, and he said he was hoping to attend the Trump Parade in part because his “dad wants to do it really bad.”
Only a few months back he, on separate occasions, showed both my boys how to weld. They were so excited about their ugly welds that we ended up polishing the welds so they could take them home each time. This summer we spent 22 straight hours at his family wreaking yard designing and building a rack for my off-roading trailer. He wouldn’t accept payment. I’ve continued to be in his debt from that and other ways he’s shown kindness to me and my family.
He was going to take my kids and I for a ride in his new purchase. Something he’s wanted for awhile. A C5 Corvette. We didn’t make that, but 3 of my kids did get to at least take a ride in his hearse that he loved. Which they probably liked even more than a Vette ride.
One takeaway from this tragedy is to be the best person you can be, as soon as possible. Never stop improving. Brandon and I would often talk about improving ourselves. We’d give each other tasks. He was a great example. Always showing kindness and giving. My only regret was being to shy to say hi when I was first prompted at a county executive committee meeting years ago. I had noticed the stickers on his laptop. Glad I finally said hi. Miss you buddy. I’ll do my best to see you soon. But not too soon. We’ll race the quarter-mile in our matching C20s.

My dear friend, Brandon Loveland, unexpectedly passed away two days ago. It's been tough thinking about how much I and so many of our friends in Utah County and the State of Utah political world will incredibly miss him.
He was such a good guy and friend! Everyone greatly admired, respected, and loved him. He was a bright light on dim days. It's shocking and so very sad to have lost someone who was a leader in many ways and one that we knew would make a YUGE difference in this world. He loved our country! We both graduated in political science and constitutional studies but one year apart and would talk politics.
I've always said that in politics issues help us to find allies, but most importantly real friends. It's meeting good friends in politics that keeps many of us involved.
I am very sad at our loss. I noticed his breathing difficulties a few times when we were together.
Yes, I feel it is a bit selfish because so many of us are wanting and already deeply missing our future opportunities to be with Brandon. It is such a loss for our world. He made all of us better people.
Brandon, we will all work a little harder in your memory!

Brandon Loveland, my friend died today. He was one of the most intelligent funny friends I knew. I helped him run for treasurer and spent a lot of time getting to know him. We both love cats, are fans of Nascar, and love liberty. He was a Republican Precinct Chair under my District 59 and still performed the intense County Treasurer position. He did a great job serving the our community, State, and Beloved Nation. He went above and beyond as neighbor and we regularly had conversations. He recently had a conversation with me about how glad Covid-19 didn't kill me, and he regularly checked up on me to see how I was doing. I am devastated to hear that he unexpectedly passed away. All day I've gone through the stages of grief which are denial, anger, bargening, depression, and now acceptance is the hardest to swallow. God took a patriot from us today. I know he has work to do in Heaven and will be kept busy. But still it was too soon. — ☹️ feeling emotional.
