Obituary
It is with immense sadness that we share the passing of our beloved husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather, James Brasco Jr., on January 24, 2025, in Florida at the age of 92. His wife was with him in his final moments.
He was such a good-natured man, and his greatest pride was his family.
He is survived by his wife Donna Guthrie of 53 years; daughters Vickie Steenson (William), Candi Burzio (Bobby), daughter Marla Brasco and son James Richard Brasco; five grandchildren Chris Brasco (Kelly and Quinn), Haley Jamison (Dave), Chelse Lubinsky and Kayla Burzio (Nick), Domenico “Nico” Brasco; four great-grandsons Santino Brasco, Nolan Jamison, RJ and Sonny Lubinsky, and a great-granddaughter Harper Jamison; daughter-in-law Susie Brasco; his dogs Spike and Steel. He is preceded in death by his two sons, Gary and Randy Brasco; he will be reunited with his three sisters and three brothers in heaven.
He was proud of his Jeannette PA roots and the Jeannette Jayhawks. He had a passion for watching his sons and grandsons playing football and wrestling. In his earlier years, he enjoyed weightlifting and bodybuilding, and it really showed. As he couldn’t do much as of late; his favorite pastime was watching reruns of BayWatch – all day. His absence leaves a void in our hearts and as we celebrate his life, we take comfort that he is now in the hands of our Lord, until we meet again.
