Branden Nava

Branden Nava, known as Ralphyy to his friends, passed away March 14, 2021, surrounded by loved ones in his hometown of Glendora. He was 28 years-old.
Branden was born September 15, 1992 to his mother, Jackie, and father, Tony. He graduated from Glendora High School in 2010 before embarking on a lifelong journey of learning. His curiosity and sense of adventure took him to universities in Seattle and Honolulu, where he studied such diverse subjects as linguistics and botany.
Branden was a talented and passionate musician who enjoyed great local success on the Sunset Strip as lead guitarist of his bands Mercyy and Dead End Gypsies. Outside his love of music, he had an aptitude for performing magic and card tricks for his friends and family.
Charming, charismatic, and genuine, Branden was a friend to all and left a lasting impression on everyone he met. He lived life to the fullest and brought all of his loved ones with him on the journey.
Branden is survived by his mother, grandparents, sister, niece, nephew, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. He was preceded in death by his father, Tony, in 2015, with whom he will reunite.
At this time, the family is asking for privacy as they grieve the loss of their brightest light, Branden Nava, and his positive impact on so many lives, will never be forgotten.
