He was a leader in the diocese for more than a decade before his retirement.
Bishop Larry Kulick reflected on his legacy.
“Bishop Brandt was truly one of those Renaissance men, a classic bishop,” Kulick said. “I think many of us would say that, when you talk about Bishop Brandt, ‘Bishop Brandt was the bishop.’"
Another viewing for Braandt will be held from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m. on Friday, followed by a funeral mass at 2 p.m.
