Jamie L. Brzuzy, 65 of Monaca known affectionately as Jamie to her friends and loved ones went to be with her Lord on Sunday, January 5, 2025, at Heritage Valley Sewickley CCU. Her passing was unexpected following a brief illness. Jamie was the daughter of the late James and Virginia Felton and grew up surrounded by the love of her siblings, including her late brother Harold Felton and sister Sandy Bilinsky.

Jamie’s heart found the love of her life in Michael ‘Chief’ Brzuzy, whom she married on October 10, 1981. Their love story was one for the ages, as they became the first couple to exchange vows in the newly built Oak Grove Church of Christ. Jamie and Michael’s union was blessed with 47 years of unwavering devotion, and together they built a beautiful family. Their daughter, Ashley Anne Brzuzy (Jason Boorech), brought them immense joy, and Jamie embraced her role as ‘Nunnie’ with open arms, showering her grandchildren, Alexia Mester and Lilly Adinolfi, with love and affection.

Jamie’s life was marked by her closeness to her family, including her sister Vanessa (Steve) Palko of Hopewell Township and Brenda (David) Spears in North Carolina. She also shared a special bond with her sisters-in-law, Debbie (Kevin) Phillis and Judy (Mark) Merritt, as well as her many nieces and nephews who will remember her fondly.

A graduate of Hopewell Area High School, Jamie’s professional life was spent in the nurturing environment of Sewickley Academy’s food service, where her compassionate nature made her a beloved figure among students and staff alike.

She was an excellent cook and a fantastic baker, known for her culinary creations that delighted the taste buds of friends and family. Her skills in homemaking were unparalleled, and she took great pride in creating a warm and welcoming home. The joy of her life was her grandkids, for whom she loved wholeheartedly. Jamie also cherished the company of her two kitties, Angel and Milo.

In her earlier years, Jamie was a member of a Saturday mixed bowling league, and she found delight in playing cards at her sister Sandy’s house.

Kind, loving, and compassionate are words that best described Jamie.

Friends will be received on Sunday, January 12th from 1-7 p.m. at Simpson Funeral and Cremation Services, 1119 Washington Avenue, Monaca, where services will be held on Monday, January 13th at 11 a.m. with Evangelist John Reed officiating. Interment will follow in Beaver Cemetery.
