Jeremy L. McCullough-Rudd, a beloved son, brother, and friend, passed away on August 5, 2025 in Fort Worth, Texas. Born on July 4, 1971, in Arlington, Texas, to Kadena (Jackson) Potts and Dwight McCullough, Jeremy was raised in Arlington and remained deeply connected to his hometown throughout his life.
A proud graduate of Arlington High School, Jeremy was known for his vivacious spirit and boundless energy. He found joy in the simple pleasures of life, whether it was fishing on a quiet lake, perfecting his grilling technique, or sharing his love for the Dallas Cowboys with friends and family. His devotion to the game was only matched by his loyalty to the voices of 105.3 The Fan, where he found a sense of camaraderie in sports and talk radio.
Jeremy was known for his exceptional salesmanship and earned the title of “sales extraordinaire” during his time at End Zone Athletics, where his passion for his work shone through in every interaction. He built strong relationships with colleagues, customers, and friends alike, leaving a lasting impression on all who had the privilege of working with him.
Jeremy is survived by his mother, Kadena Potts; father, Dwight McCullough; his twin brother, Jason McCullough-Rudd, David Rudd and wife Leighia, Chris McCullough and wife Amy, DJ McCullough, and Tommy Bain. Jeremy was a proud uncle to Zachary Rudd and great-uncle to Sutton Rudd, along with many other nieces, nephews, and cousins. He was also adored by his grandmother, Mary Rudd.
Jeremy was preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Charles and Kathleen Jackson; paternal grandparents, Mary and Lloyd McCullough; and his grandfather, Ray Rudd.
Throughout his life, Jeremy was fortunate to have a second family in his colleagues at Academic Productions, where he formed lifelong friendships and made countless memories. His infectious laughter, warm heart, and unwavering loyalty will be missed by all who knew him.
Jeremy's memory will live on in the hearts of his family, friends, and all those whose lives he touched. His legacy of kindness, generosity, and love for life will continue to inspire those who knew him.
