I am hoping to get some answers about my lilac tree with some dying branches #866817

I have a lilac bush that is pretty old. it had nice blooms on it in the spring after we trimmed it back last year. But suddenly I am seeing branches that look like they are wilting on one section of one of the shrubs. The leaves are withering and the blooms are all withering. The other trees around it seem to be fine.
