Brad Zabloski Obituary
Brad was born in St. Cloud to Norman and Helen (Dahlke) Zabloski. He graduated from Foley High School in 1981 and studied at St. Cloud Technical & Community College. He went on to earn a bachelor's degree from Metropolitan State University. Brad enlisted in the U.S. Army Reserves at age 16 and served for 34 years, including two tours of active duty.
Brad will be remembered for his love of music - he played in a band in his younger years and continued to play the drums, guitar, piano and sing throughout his life. He will also be remembered for his fondness of drinking and gambling.
Brad is preceded in death by his mother and his brothers, John and Bruce. He is survived by his children, Katie and Kyle; his father, Norman; and siblings, David (Roseanne) Zabloski, Diane (Brian) Gorder, Michael (Carol) Zabloski, and Richard (Valerie) Zabloski.
