Jeffrey Michael Bramlett was born on Sept. 4, 1979 to David J. Bramlett and Cindy K. (Lawrence) Bramlett in Stockton, Calif. and died in his sleep during the early-morning hours of Jan. 23, 2015. Blond-haired and green-eyed, from an early age Jeff enjoyed and excelled at sports. At age 6, he started playing little league baseball, advancing to Babe Ruth when he was 13. Always loving baseball, he joined a traveling team and played in different cities in the United States and Canada. He was a graduate of Lincoln High School in 1997, where he played on the baseball team from his freshman through senior years.
As he entered his 20s, Jeff’s passion turned to classic Mustangs and computers. Even before he was out of high school, he was working in the Bramlett family business, Mustangs Plus. There he worked with his father and older brother, Greg, until the time of his passing. As the person responsible for the Mustangs Plus computer system, website operations, website content and many advertising duties, he will be missed by his co-workers and family. Devoted to the family business, he drove a 1966 Mustang to work every day.
In 2003, he met Elizabeth Oliva while on vacation in Rosarito, Mexico. They were married on Valentine’s Day, 2004 and have two children -- Noah, age 4 and Abigail, age 2 -- all of whom survive him. He is also survived by his father and stepmother David and Diane Bramlett of Stockton and by his mother Cindy K. Bramlett of Brookings, Oregon; his grandparents Barbara Lawrence of Stockton, Harold and Roxanne Lawrence of Galt and Glenn Bramlett of Stockton. His grandmother, Betty Bramlett, preceded him in death in 2010.
Jeff is also survived by his brother and his brother’s wife, Greg and Kim Bramlett, and their two children, Claire and Matthew; step sisters Theresa Carbery and her husband, Harley, and their two children, Wyatt and Olivia of Las Vegas, Nevada; Julie Fredette and her husband, Matt and their three children, Gabriel, Brandon and Elena of King of Prussia, Pennsylvania and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins, most of whom live in the Stockton area.
