John Edward Brigandi

So sad to hear the news of John's sudden death. Lots of memories and laughs from high school and of course football! Prayers and condolences to all his family and our friends for the loss of a good man! Amen!

First met John in Junior High School. Always friendly, always laughing, that´s how I´ll remember him. Thoughts and prayers for John and his family.

What a Shock. Very Sorry to hear. I spent a few years with John in College we even lived together for awhile. He was always a big jolly handsome fun man always in the mood to have a beer with you. Just a jolly Western New Yorker. The guys, the fraternity, We had a lot of fun in college. This is very sad.

My sincere sympathy Mary Jane and all the Brigandi family members. We met in the 80s as coworkers and have continued as friends. I so enjoyed keeping up with the stories of your wonderful family. I am so glad we were able to get together recently. You are in my thoughts and prayers. May God hold you in the palm of His hands during this most difficult time

Our deepest condolences to Mrs. Brigandi and her extended family.

Mrs. Brigandi regularly speaks so lovingly about her children and grandchildren that we know that her beloved son, John, knew how much he is loved.

Our sincerest prayers of healing for all of you.

Many blessings,
David, Cindy, Joshua and Jeannie Barber

John was friends with my brother Chris along with being our neighbor. He was funny, kind and sweet as well. Car pooling to school was always great as he made us laugh the whole way with his stories and humor. His smile was contagious! Prayers to his family at this very difficult time. God speed John...

John lived on my street and was friends with my brother Chris. He was so friendly and funny and sweet as well! He was always so happy and would love to tell stories and his smile was contagious! Chris and I would pick him up for school and laugh the whole way there. Such happy memories from way back when. Prayers to his family at this most difficult time. God speed John...

John was always so nice in Highschool. John never judged anyone and was Friends with so many people. A wonderful person

John lived on Rumson RD right behind us as little guys and then later moved. We were always good friends in High School and playing football together. John was extremely funny and always made me laugh. We had another common bond he and I shared as we both had big brothers and both were larger than life in their grades and both were extremely tough older brothers. John asked me once if I ever tried my older brother and we both agreed we did once and both said the outcome was the same and we laughed hard about it. He called me baby otto because of that but when ever he would see me he called me "Baby" I always laughed and he will be greatly missed by anyone who John. My sincere condolences to his family May he RIP.

The friendliest man you would ever know

Jr.high school!
The first person to laugh each day!

I grew up on the same street as John. Walked to school with him for seven years. The good times we shared together as teenagers and young adults are too numerous to mention. Besides being one of the funniest people I knew, he was also extremely kind and insightful. He was a great friend.

Many condolences to Mrs. Brigandi, Tori, Paul, Mary, Kelsey and Marlo.

Godspeed Amigo!!!

Sad to hear this news. John and I were good friends during high school. Have many excellent memories of working out, playing football as co-linebackers, partying, shooting the breeze, etc. He was part of a close group that included Todd Ellis, Andy Puleo, Mike Doerner, and Vern Celestino. First of us to die.

Unfortunately, living in Montana and having back surgery this week, I cannot attend the funeral. My sincere condolences to Paul and his Mom who I remember well.

Best, Chris Cerquone

The love of friends and family carry you through your grief. Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

I worked with John on Wall St and remained friends for the past 25 years. He was by far one of the Funniest people you would ever have the good fortune of meeting. His quick whit would often have us all in tears laughing. We spoke usually every few weeks and he will be Missed. My Deepest Condolences to his family. He often talked about his daughter who he loved beyond words. He was a Special Person. Loved people. Loved to reminisce about the past and we always loved to talk cars. He was a car lover and a boat lover. So sorry to hear this. RIP my Buddy.

Dear John

I will miss our daily conversations as well as the plans we discussed to find and restore old "barn finds" that we were going restore together. Now, you will find peace and tranquility in another world that you and your family did not expect to see you visit so soon. On that journey, we all send our love and respect and eventually will be knocking on your door.

My sincere condolences to all of your family including Marla whose devotion to you was exlempary.

Your friend, Carlo

Your heart soon will be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

Though I only recently met John to initiate business relations my connection was unforgettable and my heart was broken none the less to learn of such a huge loss. His personality cannot easily be matched. May the Almighty make it easy on his loved ones as well as to bless him in multiplicity for the kindness that he shared with me.

Well , I met Brigs through his dear friend Pete Trapani . And Pete as you know was a very funny guy and the interaction between Pete and John amused me and we became buddies. I just spoke to him last week because my friend in Pompano told me he wasnt doing great .. I'm so sorry and my condolences to his mom and family
