Brian L Wolfe

Brian Levy Wolfe, 34, passed away peacefully on June 20, 2025 in Milwaukee, WI, surrounded by family. He was the son of Jeffrey Wolfe and the late Amy Levy Wolfe and the beloved brother of Sarah, David and Julie Wolfe.

Brian was born in Boston and spent his early childhood in Philadelphia and Atlanta before returning to Newton, MA, with his family when he was in fifth grade. Even as a child, his spark was undeniable — he was curious, energetic, and effortlessly charismatic. He attended the University of Massachusetts - Amherst, where he majored in Sport Management and spent a transformative semester studying abroad in Melbourne, Australia. His passion for sports and connection led him to a career with the Cleveland Cavaliers right after graduation in 2013.

Just a year later, Brian made the move to Milwaukee to work for the Bucks — a decision that would shape the next ten years of his life. Milwaukee quickly became his home. It was there he built a vibrant, joy-filled life, and anyone lucky enough to visit him knew they were in for an unforgettable experience. As a host, tour guide, and orchestrator of fun, Brian had a way of turning everyday moments into lifelong memories.

Brian was a true sports aficionado — he didn’t just watch the games, he lived them. He traveled far and wide to attend the NBA Finals, World Series games, the Super Bowl, the Kentucky Derby, and countless other events. His life was full of adventures, whether it was a solo trek through the Pacific Northwest or ringing in the new year with friends in Cartagena. He was bold, spontaneous, and always ready to make the most of every opportunity.

People were drawn to Brian’s gregarious nature, quick wit, and exuberance. His presence was magnetic. He had a rare gift for making others feel like the most important person in the room. He was often called “the connector” — the glue that brought people of all walks of life together. His friends became family, and his family was the cornerstone of his world. He was a fearless role model and loyal protector of his younger siblings, a devoted son, and a constant source of strength and joy to all who knew him.

Beyond his love for sports, Brian was a passionate traveler, a movie buff, a sneaker enthusiast, and a connoisseur of bobbleheads with a collection as expansive as his sense of humor. While working on the premium sales team with the Milwaukee Bucks, he often pitched that he wasn’t selling tickets or suites — he was selling experiences. That sentiment captured how Brian lived his life: fully, boldly, and always with intention.

Even in life’s most difficult moments, Brian shined brightly. His ability to uplift others never wavered. He inspired everyone around him to chase their dreams, cherish the people around them, and seize every moment. He often said, “The doors are always open to those who are bold enough to knock.” Brian didn’t just knock — he charged forward with heart and soul, leaving an indelible mark on everyone he met.

Brian Wolfe was an extraordinary son, brother, and friend. He leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter, connection, and unforgettable memories. He was larger than life — and his impact will be felt forever.

Relatives and friends are invited to attend a funeral service at 2:30 PM on Monday June 23, 2025 at Temple Emanuel, 385 Ward Street, Newton, MA. Burial will follow at Mohliver Cemetery, 776 Baker Street, West Roxbury, MA.
