On May 1st, 2024, surrounded by his loving family, Randall Scott Bradford, fondly known as "Rudy", peacefully passed away at the age of 61.
 
Rudy was a Blackfoot Indian known for his strong and quiet demeanor. He was a true jack of all trades and willing to help others. He excelled in various roles and endeared himself to all who knew him.
 
As a remarkable husband, father, grandfather, and uncle - affectionately known as Daddy, Pops, Papa, and Uncle Ru Ru - Rudy's love for his family was a constant source of joy. He treasured moments spent with loved ones at family gatherings, BBQs, on the dance floor, during fishing trips, and while sharing a cold beer, creating memories that will forever warm our hearts.

Additionally, Rudy will be missed dearly by numerous nieces, nephews, and relatives.
 
Rudy's gentle spirit and boundless love have left an indelible mark on the hearts of all those he touched. His absence will be deeply felt, but his memory will be forever cherished with love and gratitude by family and friends, a testament to the profound impact he had on our lives.
