About three miles east of Friona, Texas, just after dark at 8:15 PM, Branham's car collided head-on with another car that was headed westbound. The driver of the other car, 17-year-old Santiago Ramos, died at the scene and the other three passengers were severely injured. Branham's wife was seriously injured and their daughter, Sarah, who was laying in the back seat, was also injured. Branham's left arm was mangled and caught in the driver-side door, and his left leg was wrapped around the steering wheel. After about 45 minutes, Branham was pulled from his car and transported to the hospital at Friona, and then later transported to the hospital at Amarillo, Texas. He lived for six days after the crash, dying on December 24, 1965 at 5:49 PM. His body was returned to Jeffersonville, Indiana for burial and was finally buried on April 11, 1966, Easter Monday. | About three miles east of Friona, Texas, just after dark at 8:15 PM, Branham's car collided head-on with another car that was headed westbound.
