Bradford Lee Craddock's Obituary
Bradford Lee Craddock passed away peacefully in South Jordan, Utah on November 27, 2022, in the attendance of his loving children.
Brad was married to Barbara Ann Clark Craddock for 60 years, 3 months, and 3 days. They were blissfully happy together, which was apparent to all who met them. Barbara proceeded Brad in death on September 03, 2021, and it gives his family solace that they are now reunited. Brad is survived by his children Carla Elaine Craddock Vogl, Harold Robert Craddock, Trina Ann Craddock Muir, and Christopher Lee Craddock (deceased), David Egan Muir, his son-in-law, as well as 9 grandchildren and 14 great grandchildren. Brad was the eldest of 6 children, and his siblings include Kathy Howsen, Rosemarie Ferris, Marianne Dean, as well as Paul Craddock and Madeline Stine, who both preceded him in death.
Brad was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota on May 16, 1941. Brad proudly served our country in the United States Marine Corps for 22 ½ years, during which he completed two tours of duty in Vietnam. When asked about his military service, Brad would always say “Serving my country was the greatest honor and privilege of my life.”
Aside from spending time with his wife, Barbara, Brad enjoyed hunting, fishing, watching a baseball game, and the occasional trip to Wendover or Las Vegas, where he and Barbara resided for 10 years, prior to relocating to Utah.
Brad will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him!
