Bradley Dennis Klotz
Dec. 4, 1967 – Feb. 16, 2025

Our husband, father, son and friend passed away unexpectedly on the property he loved, on Sunday, Feb. 16, 2025.

Brad was born in Hinton, Alta., to Dennis and Joyce Klotz and lived for the last 18 years on his special piece of paradise near Withrow, after moving there from Sundre.

The best word to describe Brad is “strong” — in so many ways. His quiet strength, firm conviction, strong faith and genuine compassion were apparent to everyone who knew him, whether with family and friends, in business, or as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses.

Brad and Catrina were married in 1994 and had five — or as Brad would often say, “just five” — children together. Beautiful memories were made, and lasting friendships were forged during travels to Mexico through the years. Brad’s family meant so much to him, and he raised his children with values and qualities that show through in each one of them today.

Brad is survived by his wife Catrina; his children: Keiran (Michelle), Brody, Torin, Saige and Ember; his granddaughter Gia and a grandson soon to arrive; his father Dennis (Verna); his sister Shelly (Tim) Oleksyn and their children Jake and Emma (Adin); nieces and nephews, special cousins, extended family and innumerable friends. He was predeceased by his mother Joyce, whom he has cherished the hope of seeing again when Revelation 21:3-5 is fulfilled.

The family is grateful for the professional and efficient response of police and EMS services, and for the overwhelming love and support from family and friends.

A memorial service for Brad will be held at the Eckville Community Centre on Sunday, March 2, 2025, at 3 p.m., and will be broadcast on Zoom.
