Brendon M. Donlin, on September 13, 2022, of Mount Laurel. Beloved husband of Kathleen (nee Mahoney) for 45 years. Devoted father of Caitlin Vera Donlin. Loving Brother of Barbara Van Horn (the late David) and the late Clark Donlin (the late Maryann). Cherished son-in-law of Elizabeth (nee Besso) Mahoney. Also survived by many loving nieces, nephews, and in-laws.

A native of Wilkes Barre, PA, Brendon attended Kings College and graduated from Glassboro State College (Rowan University).

His devotion and passion for education was evident by his 45-year teaching career. He began his tenure at Queen of Heaven Elementary School, teaching 7th and 8th grade English. There he coached the boys' basketball team. He led them to the CYO league championship title and was honored to be named Coach of the Year in 1969-70. He continued at St. Edwards School in the same position and coached there as well. His years in the classroom were completed at Lenape High School, teaching American and British Literature to juniors and seniors.

He was an avid Philadelphia sports fan and was especially fanatic for his 76ers. He enjoyed reading, watching movies from his expansive VHS collection, and anything having to do with William Shakespeare. But most of all, he loved spending time with his Caitlin.

There will be a visitation from 9:45am to 11:45am on Monday at Christ Our Light R.C Church, 402 Kings Hwy N, Cherry Hill NJ 08034.

Funeral Mass 12 noon at the Church.

Entombment Calvary Mausoleum, Cherry Hill.

In lieu of flowers, donations in his memory may be made to the Rickie Ashburn-Harry Kalas Foundation (formerly Rickie Ashburn Baseball Foundation) P.O. Box 1564, Bluebell, PA 19422.

My lifetime friend, my buddy. Fifteen to seventy-nine goes by in such a flash. We wondered who would remain to remember the other, embracing the memories of our crazy youth with joy. Lovely and faithful you were always. Dear friend, there will ever be a place in my heart for you.
Te videbo in caelo,

Ann
