Dennis Bradt Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on May 17, 2020.
Bradt, Dennis Alan COLONIE Dennis Alan Bradt, 29, passed away Wednesday, May 13, 2020, after a long battle with COVID-19. Born at Bellevue Hospital in Schenectady, Dennis was the beloved son of Doug and Debbie Bradt. Although born locally, Dennis attended elementary school in Galt, Calif. where he was active in swimming and the Boy Scouts. Dennis attended High School in Canal Winchester, Ohio, where he continued his swimming as well as being involved in school choir, theater, and Faith United Methodist Church. In his high school years, Dennis served as a lifeguard at several of the local pools. Dennis attended college at Kent State University in Ohio as well as Adirondack Community College locally. Returning to the area after college, Dennis worked for Conifer Park Substance Rehabilitation Center. He held several different positions at Conifer, most recent being addiction technician. He was an active member of the community, an avid and knowledgeable sports fan with an unfortunate love for the Oakland Raiders (never mention the tuck rule or Tom Brady) and The Ohio State University (go Bucks). His hobbies also included craft beer (he will be missed at Mad Jack Brewing) and frying turkeys (his personal best was nine in one day). Dennis was predeceased by his paternal grandmother Lynn Bradt; uncle, Danny Bradt; and cousin, Ashly. He is survived by his adored soulmate, Andela Pedula; parents, Doug and Debbie Bradt; brother, Darryn (Taylor) Bradt; grandparents, Ron Bradt, Clarke and Harriet Rhinehart; aunts and uncles, Diane (Jeff) Hayden, Terry (Fred) Anderson, Patty (Ed) Gradwell, Jill (Frank) Molen; cousins, Danielle (Chris), Heather (Ryan), Raymond (aka RJ), Sara (John), David (Natali), Deanna (Nick), Justin, James (Autumn) and Tylor; as well as many friends whom have reached out to us. He was in the thoughts, minds and prayers of his many friends, family members, and co-workers throughout this difficult illness. Unfortunately, in this time of COVID-19 lockdowns, services for friends and relatives are yet to be scheduled. Future plans will be announced. Please see NewComerAlbany.com for more information.

May I please add my heartfelt condolences. While I did not know him there is a connection. My name is Dennis Edward Bradt. I am from Niskayuna. We are probably distant relatives. Again my deepest sympathies.

I only worked with Dennis for a short time at Conifer Rehab, but I remember on several occasions when we had to eject a problem patient from Conifer, Dennis would always be one of the first staff to be on site to back us up. Always felt safer seeing Dennis show up. I'm so sorry, my prayers are with you.

Dennis was more than a coworker, I considered him a friend. I would pass by him daily at work and talk to him. Most often our conversation turned to sports. Dennis was a nice and thoughtful young man. My daughter would often have fundraisers and Dennis always made it a point to support her. This is a true tragedy in every sense of the word. I pray that all who knew and loved Dennis will find peace. I will continue to pray for his family through this time.

Rarely could you find Dennis without a smile on his face at work and it was contagious ~ I will miss popping in the B1 hallway to make you laugh by telling all the patients you were the real boss at Conifer. Thank you for your consistent unconditional positive regard towards patients and staff it did not go unnoticed, you are missed
