Bradley James Wallace, 69, of Chardon, Ohio, passed away peacefully on January 23, 2026, surrounded by his loving wife and children.
Brad was born in Iowa to the late Claude Wallace and Doris (née Backhaus). Family meant everything to him; his children and grandchildren were truly his whole world.
Brad had a lifelong love of baseball, especially the Cleveland Guardians. He enjoyed traveling across the country visiting different ballparks and never missed a chance to catch a game. He also loved riding his bike through metro parks, both locally and out of state, embracing the outdoors whenever he could.
Brad is survived by his devoted wife, Gina, with whom he shared 40 years of marriage. He also leaves behind his children: Brittany (Jeff), Brennen (Christina), and Bryan (Annette); and his six cherished grandchildren: Kennedy, Enza, Hudson, Wesley, Rosa, and Vivian.
He is also survived by his mother, Doris Wallace, siblings, Steve Wallace (Tammy), Jay Wallace, Greg Wallace, Brent Wallace (Gail), Jeff Wallace (Amy), Julie Crowley (Vince), Laurie Logar (Tom), and Sue Wallace (Tim). Brad was a loving uncle to many and will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
Brad was preceded in death by his father, Claude Wallace.
A Private Celebration of Life will be held at a later date for close family.
