Brian Joseph Anderson

January 11, 1965 — January 26, 2019

Brian J. Anderson aka BA, 54 of Middletown R.I. passed away on Saturday, 26 January, surrounded by his entire family.

He was the son of the late Charles and Eileen (Silvia) Anderson, born in Newport and raised in Middletown. Brian will be lovingly remembered by his children Brian J. Anderson II and his wife Kelly of Coventry RI, Shane Anderson of Newport R.I, his grandchildren Jayda Barksdale and Jaxon Anderson, who were the apples of his eye. Brian is also survived by his brother Charlie Anderson and his wife Susy (Camara), sister Melissa (Anderson) Wordell and her husband Sid of Little Compton R.I. and his many nieces and nephews.

Brian was a skilled carpenter and could fix or build anything, a yacht painter, and construction worker and loved the outdoors especially hunting and snowmobiling trips with his brother. He loved to cook and grow veggies which led to the family referring to him as Martha Stewart.
