Brian Gaddis Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Crawford / Ray Funeral Home on Oct. 17, 2024.
It is with deep sadness that we announce the tragic passing of Brian Christopher Gaddis, age 34, who entered his eternal place of peace on September 27, 2024.
Brian was born on February 4, 1990 in Cumberland County but had made his home in Haywood County most of his life.
Most of his working career was in the restaurant industry. Brian was an amazing cook and he had been a dedicated employee of Waffle House. He found peace in spending time outdoors, especially fishing and taking long scenic drives.
Brian enjoyed listening to music and Alan Jackson was his favorite country music artist. He loved sports, LSU and the Miami Dolphins were his teams! He also enjoyed wrestling and NASCAR. Brian attended Allens Creek Baptist Church. He was blessed with a good and kind heart and he shall be missed deeply each and every day. He left us much too soon.
He was preceded in death by his paternal grandfather, Joe Gaddis, and his maternal grandmother, Hilda Clemens.
Brian is survived by his children, Julie Gaddis of Canton and Bella Gaddis of Hendersonville; his mother, Marcha Clemens Sellers of Sylva; a brother, Steven Gaddis of Sylva and his maternal grandmother, Brenda Gaddis of Canton.
No services are planned at this time.
Crawford / Ray Funeral Home and Cremation Service is honored to be caring for the Gaddis family.
