James Reddrick Obituary

Published by Legacy on Oct. 5, 2025.
James Michael Reddrick "Mike" was born May 1, 1945, in Ft. Worth, Texas and died on October 3, 2025, in Nashville, Tennessee.

Mike was married to his wife Pat Harrington Reddrick for 51 years. He leaves behind Pat; his son, Scott Bordonaro and wife Kimberlee' his grandchildren, Blake and Brookelyn, and great grandson, Jude. He also leaves his nieces and nephews and a whole generation of grand nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, Lt. Colonel Arthur D. Reddrick and Lucy Johnson Reddrick; his sister, Sondra Shields; and his grandson, Brett Bordonaro.

Mike was a Christian, proud Texan, Eagle Scout, member of Sigma Phi Epsilon, Marine Corps Reservist, group man, teacher and custom furniture designer and builder. He saw many parts of the world and had especially fond memories of his times in the Philippines and Okinawa. He loved kids, dogs, nature and Fox Business channel. His dog, Dolly, will especially miss the treats Mike had ready for her. Mike was a kind, generous and sweet person. He will be missed.

The high point of his life was connecting and getting to know and love his son Scott and the whole Bordonaro family. What a blessing they are!

In lieu of flowers, contributions to charities are appreciated. Mike supported St. Jude’s, USO, Wounded Warrior, Tunnels to Towers and ASPCA. Or you may want to choose the charity of your choice.

A memorial service will be held at a later date.
