It is with deep sadness and heartbreak that we announce the death of Brandon Cruzado, 39, who passed away on December 22, 2024. Brandon lived a life marked by resilience, humor, and love. He was a beloved husband, father, son, and brother.

Brandon’s life was one of profound depth, filled with meaningful relationships that exuded love and loyalty. Despite the challenges he faced, his zest for life remained untamed. His hardships never dimmed his infectious sense of humor or his ability to bring light to those around him. 

Brandon taught us not to take ourselves too seriously, to love deeply, and to accept ourselves and others as they are. He exemplified loyalty in all that he did. He found joy in writing, listening to music, spending time with his family, bringing people together, and sharing laughter. His presence had a way of making the ordinary extraordinary, and his impact will be felt forever in our lives.

Brandon’s memory lives on in the hearts of his family, friends, and those who were fortunate enough to know him. We will deeply treasure the moments we've shared with him. As we say goodbye, we honor his life and the lessons he taught us.
