Brian Feere

It is with a broken heart and immeasurable love that we share the passing of my beloved husband, father and friend Brian Jeffrey Feere, on March 21, 2026, at St. Joseph’s Hospital at the young age of 63.

Despite an incurable cancer diagnosis, Brian faced each day with courage, extraordinary bravery, grace, and dignity. With the steadfast support of his family and friends, he endured the darkest moments, finding strength and hope even when life felt unbearable.

Brian was my devoted husband of 45 years, and we shared a life together for 48½ years. We had known each other since I was 13 and he was 14, growing up side by side and building a lifetime of love, laughter, and cherished memories together. Brian was a loving and devoted father to Brianna and Brandon (Vera), and a proud Nonno to Sabrina, Sebastian, and Isabella.

Survived by his devoted wife Maria Feere
Daughter Brianna Alongi 
Son Brandon Feere (Vera)
Grandchildren, Sabrina Alongi, Sebastian Alongi, Isabella Feere, 
Mother-in-law Rosa Percy,
Sister-in-law Vicky Lickers (Bob),
Brother-in-law Tony Martino,
Brother Floyd Feere (Dorothy), 
Brother Mike Feere (Kim), 
Sister Donna Lee Feere, 
Sister Betty-ann Savoy (Roy), 
as well as 26 nieces and nephews, 
and 35 great nieces and nephews. 

Predeceased by 
his Father Hugh Feere
his Mother Eleanor Feere, 
his sister Marnie O’Brien, 
his sister, Marilyn Feere, 
his brother Doug Feere, 
his nephew Todd Cockwell, 
his father-in-law Vittorio Arcari, 
his brother-in-law Luciano Martino, 
and his son-in-law Carl Creatchman.

When Brian realized he wouldn’t be going home from the hospital, he reached out to all his family and friends. It filled his heart with comfort and joy to have them gathered around his bedside in those final days, while he was still awake and aware. Together, they shared stories, laughter, and love, celebrating his life with food, drinks, and the simple, beautiful gift of being together.

Hearing from those around him and learning the ways he had touched their lives brought Brian a deep sense of peace. Knowing how much he meant to others filled his heart with comfort, surrounding him with love, warmth, and cherished moments until the very end.

From the bottom of our hearts, we thank all our family and friends for the love, comfort, and support you have given us during this incredibly difficult time. We are especially grateful for the spiritual guidance and care from our church community, which was beyond uplifting and brought us strength and peace. Your kindness, prayers, and presence have wrapped us in warmth and helped carry us through, and we will always be deeply Grateful.

Brian, my love, you were everything to me. And you always will be. Forever loved. Forever missed. 
- Your Dolly, your Babe Maria
