Atty. Brian John Musto - Friday, 1/19/2018

Atty. Brian John Musto, 28, Pittston, passed away surrounded by those he loved most on Monday, January 15, 2018, in Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center, Plains Twp., after a long battle with cancer.

Born in Wilkes-Barre, he was a loving son of Gerard, Jr. and Alice Egan Musto. Brian graduated as valedictorian of Pittston Area High School in 2008. He graduated summa cum laude from The University of Scranton in 2012, during which time he interned at the National Basketball Association. In 2016, he graduated with honors from Cornell Law School, Ithaca, NY. At Cornell, Brian was an editor of the Cornell Law Review and an Honors Fellow. He was a member of Our Lady of the Eucharist Parish, Pittston.

Brian is survived by his true love, Maria, whom he married on September 10, 2017. Also left to remember him always are his parents, Gerard, Jr. and Alice; his brothers, Kevin and Chris Musto, and sister, Kate Musto; paternal grandmother, Domenica Mickey Musto; maternal grandparents, Jack and Joan Egan; his in-laws Rey, Edith, Nikolas, Jose, Jen and Ada Melgarejo; his best friends, Mike Dalessandro and Timmy Carroll; his aunts, uncles, cousins and friends; and his dog, Lefty.

He was preceded in death by his paternal grandfather, Gerard Musto, Sr.

A funeral mass will be held at 1:00 P.M. on Friday, January 19, 2018, at Our Lady of the Eucharist Parish, 535 North Main Street, Pittston, to be celebrated by Rev. Thomas J. Maloney.

A special thanks of infinite gratitude go to all the staff and family at Geisinger Wyoming Valley, those who were there from the beginning, those whom we recently met, and everyone along the way. A special thank you to the captain of the ship and a true friend to Brian, Dr. James Brady. As Brian would say, "You're the best".

In Brian's honor, please make a commitment to donate blood as regularly as you can. Monetary donations may be made to the Brian Musto Charitable Foundation, which is being established in his memory.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Baloga Funeral Home, Inc. 1201 Main Street Pittston, (Port Griffith).

Go Cavs.
