Obituary

Elijah Wolfgang Braunbeck, 25, of Beaver Falls, passed away on February 15, 2026.

Born on March 22, 2000, Elijah was a beloved son, brother, and friend whose presence brought warmth and creativity to those around him.

He was preceded in death by his father, Nathan Braunbeck.

He is survived by his loving mother, Bonny (Ronald) Williams ; his sister, Ava Braunbeck; his brother, Mark Frankel; and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.

Elijah had a deep passion for music, especially playing the guitar. Music was more than a hobby to him—it was an expression of his soul. Whether practicing quietly on his own or sharing his talent with others, Elijah found joy and purpose through every chord he played. His love for music and his creative spirit will be remembered by all who knew him.

Elijah will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all whose lives he touched.

The family will announce a memorial service at a later date.
