If you called Brad friend or family, you knew you had someone very special. He was born on a Thursday, January 6, 1972 as Steven Bradley Waldrep in Atlanta Georgia.
As a charming, bright-eyed & dimpled elementary student, he was baptized by his Dad, was voted Elementary School King, and grew into the best friend and significant mentor of his much younger sister (Quidly). He later studied English, grounded himself with his passion of History and, thanks to his Mom’s advice, pursued Technology for a career.
He built a successful career in Financial Technology including Atlanta-based IT consulting followed by 19 years at Deloitte. Brad was known for his special blend of brilliance, charm, wit, kindness, and for always putting others first. He married his best friend and soulmate in 2012.
A member of Central Christian Church in Murfreesboro, Brad always modeled a spiritual preparedness, which also created a bedrock of faith and witness during his battle with metastatic pancreatic cancer. Brad will forever be remembered for his generosity, compassion, and graciousness. He knew us and loved us for who we truly are.
Brad’s precious spirit left our sight in the late evening of Thursday, September 13, 2018. He was preceded in death by his nephew John Preston Sloan. His remaining family includes wife Glenna; parents Martha and Bobby; brother Michael; sister and brother-in-law Christi and Jim Montjoy; step-children Ryan and wife Allison Rehnborg and Megan and husband John Mueller; in-laws Glenn and Janice Wall, Cindy and Jimmy Ray Sloan, Raymond and Sharon Wall; nieces and nephews Jonathan Waldrep, Jamey, Carson, and Cadence Montjoy and Gabriel, Sanderson and Gideon Wall.
