Aug. 18, 1990 - Feb. 18, 2012

Branden Lawson, resident of Beaverlodge, Alberta, passed away on Saturday, February 18, 2012 at the age of 21 years.

Branden was born in Edmonton, where he resided for a short time, before moving to Forest Grove, British Columbia. In 1995 Branden and his mother moved to Fort Nelson, where he went to school and spent most of his teenage years. He then moved to Beaverlodge to work, where he met his fiancé Samantha Hynes. They moved back to Dawson Creek, where their daughter Alexis was born and later their son Ryder. Residing then in Beaverlodge, Branden’s greatest joy and accomplishment was his children. He lived large, loved lots and loved life to the fullest. If you were a friend of Branden’s he let you know it.

Branden will be sadly missed by his fiancé Samantha Hynes; his children Alexis and Ryder; mother Rhonda Judson; father Rob Lawson; stepfather Mike McLean; sisters Shelby and Chevelle McLean; grandfather Bob Roe; great-grandfather Louis Judson; great-aunts and uncles Diane and Wayne Judson, Bonnie and Terry Talarico, Julie Judson; uncle and aunt Randy and Sandy Gauthier; cousins Chris and Kahla Smith, Sean and Amanda Judson, Michelle Judson and Jasmine O’Donald.

He was predeceased by great-grandmother Sheila Judson and grandmother Donna Roe.

The funeral was held on February 25, 2012 at St. Luke’s Anglican Church in Beaverlodge, Alberta.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Branden Lawson Trust Fund at any CIBC.
