Shaun Brady Memorial Fund

The Kansas City Irish Center staff, Board of Directors, and volunteers are heartbroken at the news of the tragic passing of Shaun Brady.

Shaun was a stalwart supporter of the Kansas City Irish Center and a true friend to all in the Kansas City Irish community. His restaurant, Brady’s, was an extension of himself - warm, open, and welcoming to everyone. His excellent creations in the kitchen were no match for his innate hospitality and generosity. Shaun never said no to a request for help. He was a frequent contributor to Irish weddings, wakes, funerals, and parties at the Irish Center, and always made the time to serve the community. The Kansas City Irish community is large, proud, and opinionated, and Shaun was a friend and collaborator with every member. We will always be grateful for his goodwill and kindness.

Our thoughts, prayers, and love are with Shaun, his wife and children, his extended family, the team at Brady’s, and all who were lucky enough to know Shaun. We at the Center, and the Kansas City community as a whole, will miss him terribly.

A Celebration of Life for Shaun will be held on September 8, 2024 from 5pm - 8pm at Drexel Hall.
