Brandon Wesley Valentine Stiffler

December 28, 2004 to November 24, 2025

Age 20, of Keller, Texas

Brandon passed from this life on November 24, 2025.

Brandon was a remarkable young man whose brilliance, creativity, and profound kindness touched everyone fortunate enough to know him. A sophomore studying electrical engineering and computer science, he excelled academically while pouring his heart into music as a gifted singer-songwriter and musician, composing thoughtful songs and albums that captured the depth of his sensitive heart and artistic soul. His lyrics and melodies had a rare gift for making others feel truly seen and understood.

Brandon exemplified the fierce, selfless love for which his patron saint, St. Valentine, is known. An old soul with natural wisdom about life and people far beyond his years, he loved deeply and without reservation, noticing people, listening without judgment, and offering comfort and insight that inspired many in ways that linger long after.

To those closest to him, Brandon was a rare combination of intellect, empathy, technical precision, and poetic expression. In a family of engineers and scientists, he thrived with both technical aptitude and a uniquely gifted artistic soul. Though he often felt “just different,” this was the very uniqueness that allowed him to experience beauty, love, and music more intensely than most.

He is survived by his parents, Bonnie and Joe, his brother Ryan (25), his sister Megan (23), as well as a circle of family and friends who forever carry his light, his laughter, and his songs.

A vigil will be held on December 14 at Lucas Funeral Home in Keller from 6 to 8 PM, a come and go occasion to share memories and say goodbye. The funeral Mass will be held on December 15 at Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church, followed by a reception.

In lieu of flowers, Brandon would welcome donations to programs that nurture emerging musicians and artists or, better yet, that people try their best to share authentic kindness and love with others, maybe even when it is most difficult. Love who you are, pursue the true person that you are, and touch the world with your gifts.

Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Brandon, your song goes on. We love you more than words.
