Brandon William Drew passed away on March 2, 2026, at the age of 25. He was born on July 16, 2000.

Brandon grew up in Palmer, where he spent much of his childhood surrounded by the beauty of Alaska. He enjoyed the outdoors and especially loved fishing, four-wheeling, and camping. He had a deep love of animals, especially dogs, and was always drawn to their companionship.

Brandon was a gifted student, particularly in STEM-related subjects. During middle and high school, Brandon participated in the Alaska Native Science and Engineering Program and later graduated from the Alaska Military Youth Academy.

Brandon was known for his sense of humor and playful spirit. He loved to joke and make people laugh, and those who knew him will remember his lighthearted energy.

He is survived by his parents, DanaLyn Dalrymple and Tim Sorenson; his siblings A'Lena (Jake) Turner, Trent Werder, Kaeson Dalrymple-Sorenson, Brandon Sorenson, Steven Sorenson, and Sean (Jayme) Sorenson. He maintained relationships with his biological siblings Jade Rollins, Violet Deemer, and Charles Drew.

He will be deeply missed by his parents, siblings, and many extended family members and friends.

Details regarding memorial services will be shared by the family at a later time. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to a local addiction and recovery center.
