Aaron Braniff
Obituary
BRANIFF, Aaron…
Peacefully with his family at his side, Aaron Braniff quietly took his last breath at St. Joseph’s Hospice, London, on Tuesday, June 26, 2024 at the age of 30.
Beloved son of Deb and Rob Braniff. Cherished older brother of Katelyn Braniff. Dear grandson of Ruth Bray (Gardner). Loving nephew of Grace and Robert Welch and cousin to William and Isabel. Predeceased by his grandpa Rick Gardner.
Aaron always had a smile to share with those he loved and enjoyed spending time with his family and friends. On the darkest days, Aaron could light up a room with his laughter. Music made Aaron happy and he also loved to be surrounded by activity. Aaron’s gentle and kind spirit was evident in every situation and he had the ability to speak through his beautiful and expressive eyes. Our hearts are broken but we know that he is in the arms of Jesus in paradise. Praise be to God for the promise of tomorrow as our hope is not in this world, but in our final resting place with him. Aaron has left our world but he will never be forgotten and will be forever loved.
A memorial service will be announced at a later date.
We would like to thank the Woodstock hospital and St. Joseph’s Hospice of London for the exceptional care of Aaron during his stay. Our family would also like to extend our heartfelt thankfulness for the understanding and support we felt as we walked alongside of our son and brother these past few months. God bless.
