Bryan Farley Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Raffeo - DiCecco Memorial Home, Inc. from Jan. 5 to Jan. 6, 2026.
Bryan Francis Farley, of Upper Darby, PA passed away on January 1, 2026, at the age of 46. Born on December 4, 1979, in Drexel Hill, PA, Bryan was the son of Patricia Pitts (Killion), the late William Farley, and stepson of Steven Pitts.
After graduating from Upper Darby High School, Bryan embarked on a career as a welder, beginning as an apprentice and working his way up to a production welder and metal fabricator. In his spare time Bryan loved all things Philly sports, most especially his beloved Phillies. Bryan also loved music and had a special place in his heart for Bob Marley. Those who knew him best also knew Bryan as a gifted artist who loved to draw.
Bryan was a shining light in the lives of all who had the privilege of knowing him. His journey on this earth was one marked by love, compassion, kindness and an unwavering devotion to his family and friends. His passing has left a void in the hearts of his family, friends, and many more whose lives were touched by him. We ask that you remember him not for the way his life ended, but for the way it was lived, and for the profound impact it had on the lives of those who had the pleasure of knowing him.
Bryan is also survived by his brother William J. Farley III (Elizabeth), brother, Christopher Farley, nieces, Corinne and Claire Farley, nephew, William "Will" Farley, as well as numerous uncles, aunts, cousins and friends who deeply loved and supported him throughout his life.
