Obituary For Randy Michael Branch

The Perfect Husband and Father

Randy Michael Branch, the perfect husband and father, met Jesus on December 25, 2025, at the age of 56.
Born on September 13, 1969, Randy was a man whose life was defined by deep love, quiet strength, and unwavering devotion to his family. To know Randy was to feel safe, supported, and truly loved.

Randy married the love of his life, Raynee Branch, on May 20, 2015. Together they shared a love so deep and special it felt as if it belonged only in the movies —a partnership filled with devotion, laughter, and unwavering support.

One of the happiest moments of Randy’s life came when he discovered he had a son, Austin Branch, when Austin was just six months old. Austin was truly the apple of Randy’s eye. Randy loved participating in every sport he signed Austin up to play, proudly cheering him on every step of the way. He cherished snuggling with Austin before bed, listening closely as he learned about his day. Randy was deeply proud of the man Austin is today, and his love for his son knew no bounds.

Randy was a funny, playful, and kindhearted man. He always put people first, yet never missed an opportunity to choose fun whenever he could. He delighted in Nerf gun battles, silly string raids, riding his Harley, listening to music, and performing silly dances just to make Raynee laugh. He also found great comfort in his beloved dog Harley, who brought him peace and companionship in the last several years of his life. Music was both his comfort and his passion, just as his Harley motorcycle symbolized freedom and joy.

Randy worked for AlphaGraphics Seattle for 24 years, where he built not only a successful career but a second family. He was deeply proud of his accomplishments there and treasured the relationships he formed over the years.

Randy grew up in White Center, Washington, affectionately known as “Rat City,” a place he proudly represented throughout his life. He attended Evergreen High School. He was a fierce Seattle Seahawks fan and also proudly supported UW Football.

Randy is survived by his wife, Raynee Branch; his son, Austin Branch (Hailey), and beloved dog Harley; his step-sons, Thomas (Talina) Mott III and Chance (Mikaylah) Maggiacomo; his father, Fred Branch; step mother, Ella Robinson Pease; sister, Kerri (Ed) Snydsman; brother-in-law, Ronel Butler; sister-in-law, Christina Ledezma; aunt Cheryl (Mike) Cebula; uncle Gregg (Linda) Mixsell; uncle Randy Hain; aunts Susie (Todd) Olsen and Brenda Branch; cousins Rachel and Erika; nephews Tyler Pederson and Michael Straight; along with numerous other aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews. He is also survived by his best friend, Brent Williams, who was like a brother to him, and many friends and family who loved him dearly.

Randy was preceded in death by his grandmother, Dolores Hain; grandparents, Edith and Chuck Branch; his mother, Sharon Hain; stepfather, Walter Blackstock; uncle Ray Branch; sister-in-law, Desiree Bledsoe; cousin Shannon Branch; and nephew, Brandon Bailey Pederson.

Randy’s life was a testament to love, joy, and laughter. His legacy will live on through the countless lives he touched.

Randy, I will forever love you. Thank you for the best years of my life. I’ll see you soon, babe.

A Celebration of Life will be announced on Raynee’s and Randy’s Facebook at a later date.

    I always thought I would get along well with Randy. He was a "metal head" so naturally that won him some cool points. I loved that he jumped in and sold jewelry WITH Raynee and even tried his hand Scensy too. Everyone loved when Randy would pop on, he always seemed jolly and it was a special treat to see him being so sweet to and supportive of Raynee. He was a special human, you could just tell that Randy cherished Raynee as much as she cherished him. He was one of a kind and that kind of love goes on forever. One day I'll meet you in heaven Randy; until then, rock on brother!

    My deepest condolences to all of the family. I only met Randy online. Helping his beautiful wife sell her jewelry. He was so devoted to her. He loved hard, he always spoke so highly of his son and said how proud he was of him. Randy loved Raynee deeply also. He was always polite and smiling. And was always making a joke.

    Dearest Raynee, I'm so very sorry for your loss. Your love for him will always be in your heart! I'm praying that the peace, strength and love of Christ surrounds you in practical and tangible ways that encourage you in the midst of your grief and uncertainty. No one can tell you how to grieve, it's your own experience and timeline, so don't compare yourself to others and extend yourself the grace you have always extended to others. My love and prayers are with you, know that it's true especially when you don't feel it ❤️remember the good times and love Randy had for you. Much Love, Deborah

    I have only known Randy for 2 years. I applied at AG Seattle and met with him the same day, we easily bonded within the 45 minutes of meeting, and instantly became friends than rather coworkers. He was a joy to be around, incredibly funny but most importantly kind. I will always remember him as a man giving me life advice because he cared. Randy, you will forever be missed.

    I worked with Randy for 19 years, and although our relationship started out a little rocky, we grew into good friends. He almost always had a smile on his face and helped me out of more binds than I can count. I will forever miss walking into his office, reviewing projects, and then spending a little time talking about life and the Seahawks. You are deeply missed, my friend. I hope to see you again someday.
