Michael John Bradisse

STOW - Michael John Bradisse, 48, of Stow, Ohio, unexpectedly passed away on December 30, 2025.

Born on December 3, 1977, in Akron, Ohio, to Iris and John Bradisse, Mike lived a vibrant and full life marked by deep devotion to his family, a passion for sports, and a gift for connecting with people.

A proud graduate of Stow High School’s Class of 1996, Mike went on to earn a Bachelor of Science in Education degree and a Social Policy degree from Northwestern University in 2000. His academic journey reflected his lifelong curiosity and commitment to personal growth.

Mike’s professional path was as dynamic as his personality. He spent the majority of his career in marketing at McMaster-Carr. Most recently, he focused on personal financial planning and managing investments for himself and his family - a role that combined his analytical skills with his dedication to providing for those he loved.

Mike's enthusiasm for life extended far beyond the workplace. A devoted fan of Ohio State University, Northwestern University, and Cleveland sports teams, he brought energy and loyalty to every game he followed. His love of travel took him across the globe - from studying abroad and living in Australia to exploring Hong Kong, Scotland, Ireland, and numerous destinations throughout the United States.

Those who knew Mike will remember him as an outgoing, loyal, and fun-loving person who could strike up a conversation with anyone. Whether discussing sports or sharing stories from his travels, he had a way of making people feel seen and heard. His warmth and humor left lasting impressions wherever he went.

Above all else, Mike was a devoted husband to Jill Bradisse, and a loving father to their sons, Brennan Bradisse and Declan Bradisse. He also leaves behind his father, John Bradisse and sister, Julie Bradisse, as well as many aunts, uncles, cousins, and a multitude of friends. He was preceded in death by his mother, Iris Bradisse, and grandparents, Theodore and Helen Conklin, and John and Therese Bradisse.

Calling hours will be held at Redmon Funeral Home, 3633 Darrow Road, Stow 44224, on Saturday, January 10, 2026, from 11 AM to 1 PM, followed by a short memorial service.

Michael John Bradisse will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him. May his memory bring comfort to those who mourn his passing.
