Bradford, “Brad”, Dudley of North Richland Hills, TX passed away peacefully in his home on October 11, 2023. He was born January 2, 1953 in Tucson, Arizona to Emmitt and MaryLyn Dudley. Brad traveled the world as a military kid and graduated from Our Lady of The Lake in San Antonio. Brad spent most of his career as a Systems Programmer and Analyst for EDS and Fidelity Investments.
Brad married Linda Marie Bradbury on August 31, 1979 in Jacksonville, FL. They moved to Texas shortly after and other than a short time in TN, they lived most of their lives working and raising their children in the Lonestar State.
He leaves behind his one and only love, Linda, of 44 years, two children, Angela Estes (Jason) and Jason Dudley (Melissa) and one sister, Kelly Ricketson (Mark). He was a proud Grandfather (Papa) to six wonderful grandchildren, Cole, Braden, Reagan, Campbell, Charis, and Cade.
Avid Motorcyclist and Harley lover, Brad loved his time riding and was a true patriot of the United States of America. He loved music, loved playing his electric guitar and in his glory days, hiking up and down the Grand Canyon. He never knew a stranger, loved sharing his hiking stories and in recent years was happiest spending his time with Linda watching the Dallas Cowboys.
Brad was a no frills kind of guy and in lieu of flowers, would appreciate a donation to Wounded Warriors Project or Disabled Veterans of America.
