BRAD NATHAN

Brad Nathan went to be with the Lord on November 4, 2025, at the age of 73, after a year-long battle with cancer. He is survived by his beloved wife of 53 years, Mary, their two sons, Bryan and Sean, daughters-in-law April and Christine and brother Craig.
Brad was born in Lodi to Reo and Maxine Nathan and graduated from Lodi High School. It was during these years that he met Mary at a church youth group, beginning a lifelong love story that would define both their lives.
After earning his degree from Delta College, Brad joined his father at Reo's Appliance, where he learned the family business. In 1988, he purchased the store and proudly owned and operated it for more than 50 years, serving the Lodi community with integrity and kindness until his retirement in 2021.
A founding member of Westside Assembly (now Radiant Life Church), Brad faithfully served as a deacon, Sunday school teacher, and Royal Ranger leader for over 30 years. He remained active in the church until the onset of his illness, relishing every opportunity to teach.
Above all, Brad will be remembered as a selfless husband, spiritual leader and fun-loving father and grandfather. He cherished playing with his sons and grandchildren (Lucas, Alexa, Matthew, and JJ), always joking and up for anything fun. Brad was a blessing to countless lives, and his absence will be deeply felt by all who knew him.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, November 22, at 12:00 p.m. at Radiant Life Church, 75 N Crescent Ave, Lodi, CA 95240. The family invites all who knew Brad to join them in sharing memories and celebrating a life well lived.
