WESTFIELD – Jeffrey David Berselli – 38, born on February 28th, 1987, in Springfield, MA, passed away unexpectedly on February 17th, 2026.
Jeff is best remembered for his steadfast dedication to his family, friends, and firm. Always there to lend a hand, Jeff went above and beyond to help any family, friends, or neighbors in need. Jeff’s greatest accomplishment and lifetime legacy was being a loving father to his two beautiful daughters, Hanna and Ava, who always say, “Daddy is our favorite person.” Jeff was also passionate about skiing and après-ski, playing video games, building and working hands-on with his dad, exploring and hiking New England’s beautiful outdoors, and dreaming of discovering the great space cosmos.
Jeff was blessed with an empathetic soul, offering judgement-free and unconditional love to everyone he met. He could always be found striking up conversations with complete strangers, easily finding common ground over which to bond and share a laugh – a true gift for people from his parents. Jeff’s respective office partners “loved and cherished him for being his authentic self, sharing his generous heart, and lifting others up with his positive energy.” Over the past two years, he proudly continued growing in his finance career with All States Materials Group in West Springfield, MA. Previously, Jeff dedicated fifteen years with American Honda in West Springfield, MA. Jeff was also a proud alumnus of Westfield State University (Business Administration, Magna Cum Laude) and Wilbraham & Monson Academy (Honors student triathlete including lacrosse, water polo, and swimming).
Jeff leaves behind his two beloved daughters – the greatest joys of his life – Hanna and Ava Berselli; parents Jeffrey and Mary Ellen (Starr) Berselli; brother Stephen Berselli and his wife Sara; sister Christina Mulligan and her husband Brandon; nieces and nephews Julia and Jack Berselli, and Chase, Cole, and Erin Mulligan; right hand “feline companions” Winston, Rocko, Kiki, and Phoebe; and extended family and friends.
