Obituary of Andrew J. Bruschi

Andrew J. Bruschi, 72 of Prince's Bay, passed away in his home on the morning of Thursday, February 1st, 2024. He was the loving husband to Lisa for 41 years and the best Dad to his daughter, Tara; "brother" to James Yard; buddy and brother-in-law to Isabel Yard; the fun-loving uncle to his nieces and nephews James, Katherine, Matthew, and Victoria; adored son-in-law to Gloria and the late Jim Yard. "Andy" was born in Brooklyn and moved to Staten Island with his late parents, John and Mary Bruschi. He was a graduate of New Dorp High School and went on to have a long career as a Union carpenter. He loved his family, classic cars, and could run circles around most with his knowledge of history. But mostly, we will all remember him for the kindness he showed to everyone and his amazing sense of humor. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made in memory to Andy at: thestoryyoutold.org (supporting families with medically complex children), St. Jude's Childrens' Hospital, Shriners Hospital for Children or to PIME Missionaries (PIMEUSA.org) 17330 Quincy Street, Detroit, Michigan 48221-2749.
