Brandon was born April 21, 1988, to Jeffrey Blom and Kaye Hopper Blom (Carter) in Kansas City, Missouri. After graduating from Butler High School he honorably served in the United States Marine Corps for five years, with multiple tours of duty, including Operation Enduring Freedom, Afghanistan. He married Rebecka Lynn Braaksma in 2015, settled back into the Kansas City area, and began a law enforcement career with the Olathe, Kansas, Police Department. Over the last eight years, Brandon enjoyed serving the community and receiving the blessing of three precious daughters, whom he dearly loved. He enjoyed taking his girls fishing, working with his hands, grilling, and making pepper- sauce, so spicy that no one else could eat it! Brandon confessed his need for a Savior, and gave his life to Jesus Christ as an adolescent. Those who knew him well were privileged to know him as a man of deep thought with keen observations, wrestling with the intersecting realities of his faith and the broken world he experienced.

He is preceded in death by a sister, Megan Blom, grandparents Arthur and
Margaret Blom, and Van and Judith Hopper.

Brandon is survived by his wife, Rebecka Blom of the home, their 3 daughters Elayne, LeAnn, and Alena, his parents Kaye and Greg Carter, and Jeff and Katia Blom, his sister, Rebecca Zarse her husband Kyle, nieces Emma, Addison, Avery, Lydia, and nephew Landon, along with aunts, uncles, cousins, and in-laws.
