Brian Murphy Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Caring Cremations - Chicago on May 2, 2025.
Brian Patrick Murphy from Mineola, New York, left this world far too early at the age of 40. Brian was a bright light to everyone he knew. He had his demons, but he'd give you the shirt off his back. The world is a lot darker without him.
Brian leaves behind his loving parents, Barbara and Patrick Murphy. His sister, Shannon Fritsche (Shane) and his adoring neice, Peyton and nephew, Colin.
