Aidan O'Brian

Dunn

With hearts pierced by sorrow, yet sustained by the hope of Christ’s glorious Resurrection, Joel and Stephanie Dunn announce the repose of their infant son, Aidan O’Brien Dunn, aged fourteen days, whose soul made its departure on the morning of Sunday, November 8, 2026.

Aidan arrived on October 25, 2026, alongside his identical twin brother, Brendan. Throughout his brief earthly sojourn, Aidan fought valiantly and bore his cross well. Every breath came with difficulty, and yet every moment of his presence here also bore witness to the mystery of God’s love, grace, and the sacredness of human life. 

Before his repose, Aidan was united to Christ—who is Himself the Resurrection and the Life—through the mystery of Holy Baptism.

Aidan is dearly loved as a son, brother, grandson, and great-grandson. He is survived by his devoted parents, Joel and Stephanie Dunn; his cherished brothers and sisters: Wyatt (Paisios), Porter (Daniel), McKinlay (Anna), Emerson (Ignatius), Eva Kate (Katherine), Charlotte (Sophia), Olivia, Blaise, John, Elizabeth, and Brendan. He is also survived by his devoted grandparents, Stacey and Michelle Dunn, and Juli Jensen; his great-grandmother, June Gandy; as well as many beloved aunts, uncles, cousins, and extended family.

He was received by his Saviour into the Kingdom of Heaven, where the just repose, and was preceded in death by his grandfather, Dan Jensen; his great-grandparents, Douglas and Rowena Dunn, Elree Gandy, Dean and Janet Stead, and Raymond and Nina Jensen.

Aidan’s earthly life lasted fourteen days, but the love and kindness our family received from everyone who cared for him has left an indelible mark on our hearts. We will never be able to repay the kindness we have received, and we will never know the full measure of the multitude of prayers that have been lifted up for our son, but we truly cherish everyone. We pray that these acts of love, generosity, selflessness, and true Christian charity will be repaid to each of you by our Lord sevenfold.

“For Thou art the Resurrection, and the Life, and the Repose of Thy departed servant, the infant Aidan, O Christ our God, and unto Thee do we send up glory, together with Thy Father Who is without beginning, and Thy Most-holy and good and life-creating Spirit, now and ever, and unto the ages of ages. Amen.”

Memory eternal, beloved Aidan. Memory eternal.

Christ is risen from the dead, trampling down death by death, and upon those in the tombs bestowing life.
