Michael Robert Branscum, age 53

Michael Robert Branscum, born in Hot Springs, AR on May 23rd, 1971, passed away at his home in the early evening of Nov. 7th, 2024.

Michael loved working on computers. Sometimes even taking them apart and rebuilding them. He knew a lot about electronics and enjoyed tinkering in his garage.

He was preceded in death by his father, Robert Dewell Branscum.

Left to cherish his memory are his son, Nick Branscum (Natalie), 2 grandsons, Cole and Cohen, his mother, Leah Hill, sister, Kristy Johnson, and niece, Angeleah Velez. Michael also leaves behind 5 other half siblings, many half nieces, nephews, cousins and numerous lifelong friends that loved him very much.

Michael was also generous in being an organ donor.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the family to cover the cost of unforeseen expenses.

The family would like to extend their gratitude to those that have shown their outpouring of love in this time of devastating loss.

    I remember one of our first dates so vividly. He showed up to get me and I was in melt down mode because I had ran out of hairspray. He told my grandma that he would be right back and he took off. I didn’t think he was going to come back because I was being ridiculous. He showed back up carrying a can of aqua net so I could make my big hair! May you rest in peace, Michael. Thank you for giving me a precious Son.

    Michael shot me with a BB gun when we were like, 10. He was always a good guy. May his memory be a blessing.
