Brian D. Mansfield, 66, passed away on January 23, 2018. Brian was born on August 20, 1951 in Queens, NY, and grew up in Commack, NY. Brian is predeceased by his loving parents, Gerald and Florence Mansfield, and his brother, Robert "Bobby" Mansfield. Those who loved Brian include his siblings, Jerry, Patrice Nash (John), and Mary Mansfield (her companion, Alex), in addition to several nieces and nephews.Until his retirement in 2016, he had worked for more than thirty-five years as a self-employed Landscaper in Huntington, NY, where he resided before moving to North Attleboro two years ago. Some would say Brian was quiet yet friendly, with a hidden sense of humor. He was a caring, kind, and hardworking man who truly loved the simple things in life, especially his family and friends. Brian enjoyed spending time working in his garage and listening to his favorite team, the New York Yankees.All services will be private.In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in memory of Brian to either the NY Firefighters Burn Center Foundation, 21 Asch Loop Bronx, NY 10475, or on-line at
