Sullivan

Brian J. Sullivan (Sully), 48, passed away on Thursday, July 11, 2024, following a lengthy two year battle with cancer. Brian spent his last days under the wonderful and compassionate care of Good Samaritan Hospice in Wexford.

Born June 3, 1976, in Rochester, Pa., Brian was the son of the late Joseph S. Sullivan and Deborah Evans-Kanell.

Brian was a friend to everyone and was the kindest, most caring and selfless person one would ever meet. A sociable guy who could relate to anyone, he was a patriotic person who had a passion for Mustangs and loved the Pittsburgh Steelers. Early in his career, he worked for several years at Auto Paint Specialties in Beaver Falls. More recently, he worked for Velociti Services at the VA Hospital in Butler. Brian will be dearly missed and lovingly remembered.

Brian leaves behind to cherish his memory his mother, Deborah Evans-Kanell; his stepfather, James Kanell; his stepmother, Pat Sullivan; his sister, Amy Greene (Ian); his nephew, Brody Greene; several aunts, uncles, and cousins; and his very best friend of many years, Amy Wertheimer.
