Brandon Ruggiero Legacy Fund

A truly remarkable human being, Branden 'B' Ruggiero left behind a little bit of his Boston magic everywhere he went. As a young vivacious entrepreneur with a heart of gold, Branden pursued every venture to its maximum capacity; He lived his life similarly. He was the life of the party, everyone's best friend, and whole heartedly driven to succeed by his desire to take care of those around him. Branden embodied selflessness and kindness in their purest forms. His upbeat, outspoken and self-confident personality was balanced by his authentic, genuine and sweet nature. B was the first person to volunteer to go without, so that someone else could have what they needed. He had an epic sweet tooth, an evolved sense of style, and believed in loyalty, first and foremost.

Branden was a brother, uncle and son who loved his family fiercely, both blood and chosen. He had an impact everywhere he went on everyone he met. The people that loved him will remember his infectious laugh, his Boston accent, his nonstop energy and his magnetic personality. From Boston, where Branden was raised, to San Diego, where he spent some of the most memorable years of his life, B left his mark on the hearts and lives of countless people. An avid traveler and self proclaimed 'Mr. Worldwide' Branden was adventurous and impeccable at living in the moment, he was the best kind of irrational.

Branden is survived by an incredible family who loved him dearly, too many friends to account for and a legacy of unconditional love for every person he crossed paths with.

He will be missed and his absence felt, but with the peace of knowing that Daddy's home.
