Brandon Lee Greco 18, passed away suddenly on December 11,2022 with his family at his side.
Brandon was diagnosed with Prader- Willi Syndrome (PWS) when he was 5 months old. He lived his life going to doctors and therapies, but that never stopped him from being the presence and his sense of humor and a smile so big it would light up the room. He was a friend to everyone he met.
He loved holidays and parties and always looked forward to family and friends being together. Later on he would join Taekwondo and baseball and even got to go to summer camp. He loved animals, school, reading, movies, video games, and chatting with his friends on Facebook. He loved to visit his grandpa and grandma in Arkansas and go to Pea Ridge. Brandon also was an advocate for PWS attending walks and participating in medical trials to help others with the same “monster.” He had the purest heart and still believed in the magic of everything. He truly was a special person and will be missed by many.
Brandon is survived by his dad, Frank Greco, mom, Susan Greco (Swanson). Brothers, Frankie Greco (Ash Frank) and Matt Greco, and his best friend. his dog Hannah.
Also surviving is his grandpa (papa) Ronald Swanson. His uncles Michael Swanson, David Swanson (Jing Jing) and Steven Swanson. His Aunt Alexandra Swanson (Ivan Concepcion). His cousins Elicia Swanson, Zachary Swanson, Caleb Swanson and Asa Swanson (his gaming buddy). He just became an Uncle to Garnet who he adored. Also many other Uncles, Aunts, and cousins.
Brandon was preceded in death by his Grandma Sandra Swanson in July of this year.
Donations may be made to the family in care of Susan Greco.
Donations may also be made in Brandon’s memory to: Foundation for Prader – Willi Research or Fpwr at Www.fpwr.org Or Prader – Willi Syndrome Association at Www.pwsausa.org
