Brandon Sutton Obituary

Visit the Stephens Family Chapel - Grants Pass website to view the full obituary.

Brandon James Garboden was born on August 24th in Grants Pass. OR at 5:20 p.m. He married Troy Sutton on April fools day 2014. Brandon Sutton passed on August 23rd, 2025 a day before his 39th Birthday. He was loved by so many, he loved his girls always the big brother and funny uncle He always wanted to please people, and if you needed someone to listen he would listen with no judgment. He was funny, always wanted to make people laugh As I (his mother) drove by the Douglas County rest areas to make the trips to the hospital. I was reminded of when him and his grandparents gave coffee away at the Douglas County rest area until Brandon was around 12. They were so proud of their little man. Everyone thought he was such a little gentleman and he ate it up. But time passes and he grew up. Always the gentleman and kind. He loved food. He would always do a happy food dance when we went somewhere special. He was proudest when he was working at the VA. Always kind to everyone. Very helpful. Always dressed so handsomely in his dress shirt and tie. Then he moved to Idaho with his husband and they had gotten in a big house and had their pets. Both had good jobs but, as life does what it does. In just a flash, everything Brandon new changed. He was now alone and devastated with the loss of his husband and the unforeseen pain that was to follow. He just never recovered from his broken heart. Brandon was an awesome young man with a huge heart. Brandon is missed every minute of everyday and there are no words to express just how much. He is survived by, his father. Steven Garboden his mother D'Anne Garboden his step father, Terry Tinker his sister Tanesha Brookbank his neices Hannah Sexton, and Kailee Garboden and his uncle James Aune.

His celebration of life will be at Pioneer Park in Canyonville OR. From 3pm-5pm on September 20th, 2025.

He will join his grandparents at the Canyonville Cemetery.
