Gary Brendan Tierney, 51, of Berlin, passed away peacefully after a courageous battle with kidney cancer on Friday, August 10, 2018 surrounded by his loving wife and family.
He was born in Hartford, CT on February 6, 1967 to Philip P. and Debbie Tierney and graduated from Newington High School and Central CT State University.
Gary was part owner and National Sales Manager of his family's business, Joy Accessories and was a member of the New England Apparel Club (NEAC).
