Brandon Lee Nuzzolilo

Brandon Lee Nuzzolilo, 18, of Worcester, passed away on Thursday, November 22, 2018, in the comfort of the Rose Monahan Hospice Residence, while surrounded by his loving family; following a motorcycle accident and valiantly surviving a traumatic brain injury.

Brandon is survived by his loving parents, Dana A. and Adam L. (Bruso) Nuzzolilo; his brother, Jeremy J. Nuzzolilo; his God-parents, Dana and Melissa Oliver of Holden; his cat, Snowflake; many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.   Brandon was born in Newark, New Jersey, and has lived in Worcester all his life. 

Brandon recently graduated from Abby Kelley Foster Charter School in Worcester and was currently enrolled at The Porter & Chester Institute.  He had been working for several years at the Stop & Shop on West Boylston Street in Worcester and had just recently started Hosting at TGIF Fridays at the Blackstone Mall.

Brandon was “the light” of any party or gathering; his contagious smile and electric personality, engaged any and all who had the privilege of knowing him.  He loved playing baseball and volleyball and lettered in both sports while in high school.  He had aspired to become a custom motorcycle designer and builder, and was proud to have received a scholarship to Porter and Chester Institute.  Brandon will be remembered as a happy person who loved his family, their vacations to Florida, and the closeness of true friendship.
