Brandon Staigmiller Obituary

Brandon Staigmiller

Brandon Allen Getten Staigmiller was born on June 8th, 1987 in Great Falls, Montana. He grew up on the family ranch in Eden, MT. He attended school in Centerville and graduated from Cascade High School in 2005. After a stint being a line cook and a summer as a stone mason, Brandon and his 2 musketeers, Alisa and Josh, packed up a U-Haul and moved to the Oregon Coast. Brandon fell in love with the climate and the culture. He managed a chain of smoke shops and was actively pursuing his passion through new business ventures. Brandon's short but incredible life was cut short in a tragic car accident on February 12th, 2017. He touched a tremendous number of people with his quick wit, unfailing good humor, his unconditionally loving spirit, his love of life and love of Smarties. And of course, his encompassing hugs. Brandon is survived by his Mom, Lynne Staigmiller, Dad, Kurt Staigmiller, Lil sister, Kelsey Jo Staigmiller and special nephew Zeagan Patacsil. His four fur-babies, Charlie, Claire, Cleo & Booda. His mentor John Harper. Grandparents, Pete & Mel Balzarini as well as numerous aunts, uncles and cousins. Brandon is now playing in Heaven with his nephew Zaden Patacsil, who preceded him in death in 2013. His grandparents Ken & Marcia Staigmiller and John & Jacquie Manyen. He will be forever missed!

Celebration of Life will be at The Faith Center, 4700 10th Ave. S., Great Falls, MT at 11:00 Thursday February 23rd with a luncheon to follow at the coffee shop, Higher Ground, in the church.
