Ella Branch, age 13 unexpectedly passed away on October 11, 2025, in Tully, New York. Born on December 16, 2011, in Syracuse, New York, Ella brought light and energy into the world from the very beginning.

Ella was a vibrant and spirited young girl who embraced life with enthusiasm and joy. She had a deep love for sports—basketball, softball, and volleyball were among her favorites. Whether she was on the court or the field, her passion and determination shone through. Ella also had a fearless love for swimming; no matter how cold the water was, she would dive right in with a smile.

Beyond athletics, Ella found joy in cooking and sharing meals with those she loved. She cherished time spent with family and friends, always eager to be surrounded by laughter and connection. Her warmth and zest for life left an impression on everyone who knew her.

She is survived by her parents Josh and Amy Branch, sister Brooke, brother Logan, her Nana Jeanne Townsend,  Ma and Pop Deziely, many aunts, uncles, cousins and Friends . Her presence will be deeply missed by all who were fortunate enough to know her.
