Brandon Michael Espy, 23, of Fort Davis, passed away on November 28 in Helotes. He was born on December 23, 2000, in Odessa. He attended Permian High School, where he participated on the flag crew, “The Crew”! After graduating in 2019, he moved to Fort Davis, where he began working on the family ranch while attending Sul Ross University, then moved to Hale Center, where he also attended Texas Tech University Fall Semester 2021 and Spring Semester 2022. He then returned to Fort Davis and graduated from Sul Ross in December of 2023 with his Criminal Justice degree. Brandon moved to Helotes in August 2024 to pursue his dream of becoming a DPS Officer. He met an amazing circle of friends with whom he shared many great times.

He brought immense joy to everyone who knew him. Brandon was a bright light in our lives, known for his smile, kindness to others, positive attitude, and love of his family and friends. He never met a stranger and would help anyone who was in need.

At a very young age, Brandon gained a love for video games and was a whiz about computer technology. He had an infinite passion for Bloys Camp Meeting, where he enjoyed meeting up with cousins, playing games on the porches, and helping with the Chapel in The Rocks Youth program. He also loved the ranch in Fort Davis, enjoyed helping with the Sul Ross Rodeo, and lent a hand at the team practices. He was an avid lover of cars, and his passion for life and kindness was evident to all who knew him.

He lives on through his mother, Kitten Cannon, and stepfather, Chris Cannon, of Hale Center; father, Joe W. Espy, of Midland; sister, Makay Espy, of Midland; grandparents, Jim and Sally Espy, of Fort Davis; aunt and uncle, Mandy and KC Overturff; cousins Kellyn and Pruett, of Willow Park; and many other cousins, stepbrothers, and family members.
