Brian J. Kelleher

WILTON – Brian was a devoted husband and dad who could not have loved and cared for his family more. He will be greatly missed by his loving wife of 45 years, Gail Rofrano Kelleher, his best-buddy and son Michael Joel and his caring wife Jennifer, and his adored grandchildren, S. Filson, Nora, and Katie. He was predeceased by his beloved son, Sean.

Born in Schenectady to Mary Murphy and Cornelius Frances Kelleher on July 7, 1944, he was the youngest of five children: Maureen Selle (Winston), Sr., Eileen Kelleher, Sheila Kelleher, and the late Michael Joseph Kelleher (Mary).
He attended local Schenectady schools and graduated from HVCC. After serving in the U.S. Army, he was employed by KAPL and Schenectady GE, and he retired as Director of Information Systems for Schenectady County.

He was a very special person with many talents and names: Ang, Jack, Marco, and The Green Leone. Brian enjoyed earning all of those monikers.

Brian will be remembered by innumerable friends and family who loved him dearly. This quiet gentleman was ONE in a MILLION. His capacity for loving and caring for his family was enormous. Brian was most content in his home chatting with his sons Sean and Mike. He passed away Friday, October 18, 2013.
The family would welcome contributions to the HVCC Foundation – Sean Anthony Kelleher Memorial Scholarship at HVCC Foundation, 80 Vandenburgh Avenue, Troy, NY 12180-6096.
