Brian T Purvin, 59, of Mickleton, New Jersey, passed away on Monday, May 24, 2021, surrounded by his loving family.

 

Legacy

A fun loving and charismatic guy, Brian was a big kid at heart and the life of the party. He loved listening to music and loved to attend rock concerts, he enjoyed playing sports and watched all types of sporting events and he was an avid fan of the Boston Celtics and Boston Red Sox as well as the Dallas Cowboys. He particularly loved watching UNC college basketball. Golf was one of his passions and food being another; Brian's family and friends often thought he should have been a food critic because of his love for food and dining out. He was quick to share his opinions whether solicited or not. He had a deep love for his family and friends and would do anything for them.

 

Born in Bridgeport, Connecticut, Brian was a resident of New Jersey for 44 years.  He was a machine operator at AFL Web in Voorhees for 15 years.

 

Family

Beloved son of Nicolena R. (nee Federico) Purvin and Robert Purvin; devoted brother of Susan Purvin and her husband Tim Rohlfing; dear nephew of Joseph Federico and Donald (Peggy) Federico. Brian is survived by many loving cousins and friends.
