It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Brian Jeffry Healy, born on June 4, 1976, in River Falls, Wis., who left us on April 13, 2025. Brian lived in Webster, NY, and those who knew him will forever cherish his vibrant spirit and larger-than-life personality.
Brian was many things to many people—funny, intelligent, loving and thoughtful. He had a knack for making everyone laugh with his quick wit and impeccable delivery. He loved to tell stories, and he had one that applied to nearly every situation. He was exceptionally intelligent, with an incredible memory and vast knowledge on a variety of topics, yet he wore that intelligence with a humble grace. Above all, Brian was a family man. He showed his love in countless ways, from whipping up special meals for family to bringing home flowers every week for his wife, Stacy Jo, to surprising his children, Chloe and Alex, with treats and gifts that brought smiles to their faces. He knew how to make those he cared for feel special.
A man of many passions, Brian enjoyed hunting, fishing, cooking, playing video games, watching movies, learning about history, and spending time with his dog. He had a deep connection with his German Shepherd, Harley, who loved her “Daddy” tremendously. With his deep voice and big heart, Brian loved fiercely and completely, leaving a lasting impact on everyone around him. He often shared wise lessons and encouraging words, motivating others to be strong, stay positive, and believe in themselves.
Brian is survived by his loving wife, Stacy Jo; his cherished children, Chloe and Alex; his father, Steven Healy, and stepmother, Janice; his sisters, Stephanie and Megan, along with their husbands, Ron and Jason, and their children, Brode, Ella, Tyler, and McKay; as well as many other treasured family members. He is preceded in death by his beloved mother, Pamela; and paternal grandparents Mildred and James Healy; maternal grandparents Eileen and Armond Jensen.
In honor of Brian’s life and legacy, friends and family will gather at the First Congregational Church (110 N. Third St.) River Falls for a visitation at 3 p.m. April 23, 2025, followed by a memorial service at 5 p.m. We invite everyone to join us for refreshments following the service as we remember and honor Brian together. In lieu of flowers, memorials are preferred.
Brian, you will be dearly missed but never forgotten. Rest in peace.
Arrangements are with Bakken-Young Funeral & Cremation Services.
