Bradley Martin Errecart, 66, of McAlester, Oklahoma passed away on Thursday, August 28, 2025 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

The family will greet friends from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Saturday, September 6, 2025 at Chaney Harkins Funeral Home Chapel. Cremation and a private celebration of his life will follow the visitation.

Brad was born on June 18, 1959 in Fresno, California to Tony Errecart and Sybil June (Carpenter) Errecart. He grew up in Tranquillity, California. He graduated from Tranquillity High School. Brad worked as a long-haul truck driver for most of his life. He was currently driving for West Motor Freight Company.

He is survived by his daughter and son-in law, Tiffany Villa & Kenny Wilson ; son and daughter in law Brandon Errecart & Kristy Brewer; grandchildren: A.J., Aiden, Brandon Jr, Ariana, Khloe, Lexi, and Trinity; and brothers: Johnny Errecart and wife, Peggy, Rick Errecart and wife, Debbie, Tim Errecart and wife, Cherie, Randy Errecart, and Mike Errecart; along with numerous nieces, nephews, and other family and friends.

Brad is preceded in death by his parents: Tony Errecart and Sybil June (Carpenter) Errecart.

Brad's career as an over-the-road truck driver was more than a job; it was a calling. He navigated the highways of life with the same passion and dedication that he steered his rig through the vast landscapes of America. His work was his canvas, and he painted it with the colors of sunrise and sunset, across the endless miles.

Family was the cornerstone of Brad's life. He was a beacon of strength and love for his children and grandchildren, with whom he shared not just his time but also the wisdom of his experiences. Brad's legacy is reflected in the lessons he imparted and the unconditional support he provided. Whether it was a band competition, football games, rodeos, or a simple family dinner, he was there, cheering on and celebrating the achievements of his loved ones.

Brad's interests extended beyond the steering wheel and into the realm of classic cars. He had an affinity for the elegance of bygone eras, which was evident in his meticulous restoration work with his grandson. Car shows were his playground, and he relished in the camaraderie found amongst fellow enthusiasts. Brad's joy was contagious, and he inspired others to pursue their passions with the same fervor.

As we reflect on Brad's life, it is clear that he was a man who didn't just pass through this world; he left tire tracks of love, joy, and inspiration. He taught us to embrace the journey, to find happiness in the pursuit, and to always make time for those we hold dear. Brad's life was a reminder that every moment is precious and that the roads we choose to travel can lead to incredible destinations.

Today, as we bid farewell to Bradley Martin Errecart, let's not say goodbye but rather, 'see you down the road.' Let's honor his memory by living fully, loving deeply, and facing each new day with the same zest for life that Brad exemplified. His spirit will continue to ride the highways of our hearts, guiding us with the headlights of his legacy, illuminating our paths with the warmth of his memory.

Brad's journey on Earth may have come to a rest stop, but the echoes of his laughter, the wisdom of his words, and the impact of his love are immortal. They are the fuel that will propel us forward, inspiring us to live with purpose, to cherish every mile, and to make every moment count. Godspeed, Brad. Your journey was one well-traveled, and your story will be told for miles and miles.
