Sick Bonsai / Novice Owner

To start, I'm not sure what type of tree I have, so I posted a link to some pictures

I've had this tree for years, living healthy in my backyard with the same conditions and watering patterns. About a month ago my tree slowly started withering and half the tree became yellow.

I am sure that my watering routine is not the culprit, the tree gets plenty of sunlight and fresh air. So I assume it is sick with a disease. I have read other postings on this forum, based on what I read, I have come to believe that the best solution may be to prune off the sick leaves, maybe change the soil then apply fungicide.

My question is, is this what I should do? I am not too certain of this solution. This is the first time this tree seems sick after owning it for years.

This tree really grew on me a few years ago, and I would hate to see it die. What do you think the best solution would be?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
