It is with deep sadness we announce Brittani Elyse Fleury, 36, of Warwick, RI, lost her 14-month battle with breast cancer on September 17, 2024. Brittani was born in Portland, ME, on February 8, 1988, and grew up in Gorham, ME. She graduated from Gorham High School in 2006, and attended Suffolk University in Boston, MA, earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Interior Design, cum laude in 2010. Brittani knew she wanted to be an Interior Designer at the age of twelve when her father gave her access to Autodesk architecture software and soon after she started designing houses complete with furniture and finishes. She poured her soul into her Interior Design career, earning her NCIDQ certification and her WELL AP certification. Her passion for design was evident to everyone she met in both her professional and personal lives. Brittani was actively involved with IIDA New England Chapter and loved planning and participating in events and spending time with her colleagues. Brittani loved her work family at Vision 3 Architects in Providence, RI, where she worked on a myriad of projects around the country. In addition to her love of design, Brittani was a prolific artist and worked in multiple mediums such as drawing, painting, and needlework to name a few. She was also an avid plant collector and propagator, and a music lover, attending music festivals and concerts as often as possible. After Brittani was diagnosed with breast cancer, the love she gave others all her life came back to her tenfold. She wanted everyone who reached out to her to know how much she appreciated all their acts of kindness, love, and support. Brittani leaves behind her loving father and mother, Paul and Christine Fleury of Gorham, ME, her sister Lauren Fleury Maben and Lauren's husband Pete of Portland, OR, her aunts, uncles and cousins, her dog Maisey, and her cat Lloyd.
