With hearts breaking beyond words and a void that words fail to capture, the family of Branson Wayne announces his passing. Our brave, beautiful boy took his final breath and left this world on October 16, 2025, at 11:08 a.m.

After fighting the hardest battle any child could ever face—a struggle marked by immense courage, resilience, and a spirit that never wavered—his small body finally found the rest he so profoundly deserved.

Eleven Years of Light

In just eleven short years, Branson Wayne touched more lives, inspired more hearts, and taught more lessons about unconditional love and hope than most do in a lifetime. He was a supernova of light, packing a universe of compassion and joy into his brief time on Earth.

Branson’s laughter was infectious; his smile, a dazzling force that could instantly brighten the most sterile hospital room. He faced pain and adversity with a quiet dignity, teaching everyone around him that true strength is not measured by physical might, but by the size of one’s heart. His ability to find joy in the smallest moments—a favorite toy, a sunny day, or a silly joke—was a constant, powerful reminder to his family and caregivers to cherish the present.

A Piece of Our Hearts

For his parents and his family, Branson was their everything. He was the anchor, the miracle, and the fiercest fighter they had ever known. Their days were defined by his needs, his comfort, and his triumphs, and the depth of their devotion was a living testament to the power of family love.

Now, Heaven holds a soul so radiant, so rare, that the magnitude of their loss is truly indescribable. The void he leaves behind is not just a gap in their home, but a tear in the very fabric of their existence. A piece of their hearts went with him, and the family will never, ever be the same.

Though their sorrow is absolute, they take small comfort in knowing that Branson is finally free from pain, wrapped in the eternal peace he earned through his valiant fight. His legacy is not one of sickness, but one of boundless spirit.

Branson Wayne’s life was a gift, his memory is a blessing, and his light will forever guide the family he loved so deeply.
