William Brennan

William 'Billy' Brennan, 65 of Manalapan, New Jersey, passed away on Wednesday, August 30, 2023, at Riverview Medical Center in Red Bank, New Jersey. Born Tuesday, April 29, 1958, in Brooklyn, New York, Billy was raised in the Gerritsen Beach neighborhood with his three siblings. Billy worked for the New York City Transit Authority, eventually working his way up to Superintendent, something he was very proud of. He and his wife Betty celebrated 30 years of marriage this past July 9, 2023 (the hottest day of the century for those who celebrated with them back in 1993). Together Billy and Betty would raise their daughter Jamie and son Billy, Jr. in Manalapan, New Jersey. Billy was an excellent provider for his family and loved his wife and children (and Buddy) to no end. Billy loved spending time with his children, he enjoyed hunting at his hunting house upstate, watching his favorite football team, the New York Giants, watching Naked and Afraid, travelling, and spending time up at Brant Lake, New York with his wife and family. Billy donated to many charities throughout the years. He also fiercely supported the Republican Party. Billy was the definition of a "Gentle Giant", and he will be missed greatly by those who had the pleasure to know him. Billy is predeceased by his mother Jackie and stepfather Eddie. Billy is survived by his beloved wife of 30 years, Betty, by his cherished children Jamie and Billy, by his siblings, Donna (Anthony), Eddie, Liz (Tony), by his Uncle Marty and Aunt Helen, his cousins, his mother- in-law Carol Tracy, by his many brothers and sisters in law, John and Judy, Mary and Tom, Moe and Chris, Greg and Kristin and by his 15 beautiful nieces and nephews.
