Braden had a rare and beautiful gift for bringing people together. Whether gathering friends around a table for a game of Dungeons & Dragons or simply sharing a quiet, meaningful conversation, his presence was a source of light and comfort. He had an infectious kindness - an unforgettable laugh - and big bear hugs that left a lasting impression on everyone he met. His joyful spirit made the world feel a little more magical just by being in it.
