With a heavy heart, we announce the passing of our beloved Samuel Noah Gulbranson, who left us too soon on Friday, February 14, 2025, at Froedtert Pleasant Prairie Hospital at the age of 25.

Sammy was born October 28, 1999, in Belleville Illinois.  Sammy moved with his family to Pleasant Prairie, WI in 2002 and attended schools from pre-Kindergarten through 12 grades in the Kenosha Unified School System (KUSD) Special Education Program.  Through his developmental years, Sammy attended Vernon and Jeffrey Elementary, Lance Middle School and graduated from Tremper High School in 2018.  After high school, Sammy went into the KUSD Step Program from 2018-2021, and most recently Sammy loved being in the Easter Seals Program.

Sammy had a special infectious smile, an continuously radiated love to all those who knew him.  Sammy loved music, and his watching his favorite shows, especially the Muppets and Wiggles.  He loved to dance in his own special way and express his happiness to those around him.  He enjoyed nature and participated in the Kenosha Baseball Challenger league for several years.  Sammy was very loved, cared for deeply, and lived a very happy life.  In return, he enriched and radiated sunshine and love and to all who knew him, he was our angel right here on earth.

We would like to thank all his great teachers, assistants and support staff through the years and most recent the lifesaving efforts from the Froedtert South Medical Team and First Responders.  Sammy also received quality health care from Children's Hospital, Herma Heart Center in Milwaukee.

Sammy is survived by his parents, Jack and Victoria Gulbranson; sister, Gabriella; brothers, Luke and Jackson; paternal grandparents, Darryl Gulbranson and Mary Ellen Parnell and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.

Sammy was preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Marion and Earl Hansen; cousin, Brandy Hansen and uncle, Eric Gulbranson.
