BraveWords offer our condolences to the Peart family, as news has come down that Danny Peart, the younger brother of late Rush drummer, Neil Peart, has lost his battle with Glioblastoma, the same type of cancer took Neil in 2020.
Rush Is A Band shared a message via social media, stating: “We’re very sorry to hear that Neil Peart’s younger brother Danny lost his battle with Glioblastoma and passed away on Thursday. Thinking of Danny’s family and friends at this very sad time. RIP Danny.”


Rush fan page RushCon shared, “RushCon wishes the Peart Family our deepest condolences. We are deeply saddened to hear about the loss of your beloved brother and son, Danny. His kindness, generosity, and encouragement touched so many lives, and his legacy will live on through the countless memories and lessons he shared with everyone. His love for sports, fitness, poetry, and friendship will be cherished by all who knew him.”
According to RushBrasil.com, the Peart family confirmed Danny’s death in an official note on the social network Facebook, signed by his sister, Nancy Peart.
In the text, Nancy shared details about her brother Danny’s personality. “He was sincere and sensitive, always finding a way to help and encourage,” the note says. A family tribute will be made in the park best known to Rush fans, because of Neil’s lyrics, recorded by the band. “We will plant a tree in Lakeside Park, next to our father’s tree (who passed away in 2021) and Neil’s pavilion,” she said.
