Brian Birch Obituary

Uncasville - Brian T. Birch Jr., 57, a longtime Montville resident, passed away peacefully Tuesday, Oct. 13, 2020, at his home. Born in New London July 8, 1963, he was the son of Janet L. Moody and Brian T. Birch Sr.

For many years Brian worked at the Naval Submarine Base in Groton, operating the hazardous waste facility. He was proud of the work he did, and realized the seriousness of his responsibilities. He also worked part time as a local bartender, utilizing his people skills; and he made many friends along the way. Brian also spent 12 years in Vermont working at Tyson-Village Store, and again endeared himself to many of the "locals" and tourists. One of his greatest acts of devotion was his commitment to taking care of his grandmother, and making sure that she could stay in her own home. He was a very unique and special person, who will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him. Brian loved rooting for the Dallas Cowboys, the Boston Red Sox and enjoyed NASCAR racing.

In addition to his parents, he is survived by his grandmother Myrna Moody; sister Kimberly O'Connor (Ken); his devoted friend, Tom Village; nieces, Megan and Kelly; and many aunts and uncles.

The Woyasz & Son Funeral Home is assisting with arrangements. A celebration of Brian's life will be held at a later date.

I too was subject to Brian's finger pointing statement of "YOU" and if you put up a protest, it was quickly followed up with a shut-up and get over here statement. Brian's hard outer shell protected the real Brian inside that only a few of us lucky ones got to know. I will forever miss you brother, and I am glad that you know how much I will...
Goodbye my friend.

I hope you are resting peacefully my friend. I will never forget the first time we met and you pointed your finger at me and said "you!" We became instant friends and shared many laughs. It was fun confusing people as well since we shared the same name.

I will surely miss my cousin Brian- what a caring and loving soul he had. In many ways since we were 6 months apart in age- he was also more than a cousin. Rest peacefully Brian and know so many who loved you will be missing you !

I never met Brian Jr. in person but heard a great many stories and updates over the years from Brian Sr. I was always impressed with his dedication to his grandmother and also envied him for living and working in VT. He seemed to enjoy it and took a great deal of pride in his work and his relations with the community and customers. He'll be missed by many and the Birch family is in our prayers and thoughts.
