Brandon Forlastro’s 22nd birthday, which was supposed to be a public holiday yesterday, turned out to be his parents’ worst nightmare. Brandon was killed in a motorcycle accident in New Milford, Connecticut. He’s going to a party with his friend and girlfriend Brianna Medina. Brianna is in critical condition. Words cannot explain this tragedy. No parent should ever lose their child or have to see them fight for their lives. Brandon touched people all over the world and we will miss him dearly. Please keep Brianna and her family in your thoughts and prayers.

Brandon Lee Forlastro passed away on May 1, 2022 in New Milford, Connecticut. Brandon was born on May 1, 2000 in Danbury, Connecticut, to parents Jennifer Coote Forlastro and Jeffrey Forlastro love.
Brandon is an integral part of his community and continues to form deep connections with everyone he meets.

He enjoys attending car and bike conferences, where he becomes an integral part of the community, and sometimes organizes the conferences himself. He takes immense pride in being fluent in Spanish, which allows him to make connections across language barriers. Some people called him Rubio… He was outgoing, smart, and an amazing son and friend. In his youth, Brandon was a proud participant in the local 9th Boy Scout Troop and has always lived up to the qualities, values and skills he acquired through his involvement with the troop. He loves the innocence of nature and animals.
In addition to his parents, Jeffrey and Jennifer Forlastro, Brandon is survived by grandfather Richard Forlastro, maternal grandparents Robert and Jacqueline Coote, uncle David Coote and aunt Megan Aversano. As well as the many uncles, aunts, cousins and family members he raised in the car and motorcycle community.
