Bradie Trease DeFalco

On May 22, 2025 Heavenly Father welcomed a precious daughter home to not only love and cherish but to add peace. She will be truly missed by all who knew her.

It was a holiday weekend, May 25, 1980 that Bradie entered this world just in time to share a birthday with a special great grandmother. She was welcomed by her parents Rick and Judith Trease. It wasn’t long before her cute little blond and bouncy curls enhanced by her warm smile and bright eyes were capturing the hearts of those around her, especially her grandparents, aunts and uncles. At the age of four she became the big sister to her brother Kache. Her young life was spent in Wellington, Utah surrounded by cousins and friends who loved her. She participated in many dance recitals and pageants being crowned the queen of the show many times because of her talents, charisma and charm.

Just as she entered her teenage years, she moved to Las Vegas, Nevada. She attended and graduated Green Valley High School. While there, she loved participating in the drill team. Much time was spent practicing, doing halftime shows, and participating in competitions. She also loved playing softball where she secured the position of catcher. In addition, she graduated from seminary offered by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints . Later, she attended CCSN in Henderson.

Throughout Bradie's life she had many jobs, perhaps her most favorite was at Desert Labs in St George. Bradie spent many years there and was known and admired for her strong work ethic. Bradie worked hard hours and was always happy to be there every morning to meet the tasks of the day. She was also a Mortgage Specialist, working with her mother for 2 years, where she was known for her attention to tedious details. Bradie also worked in the banking industry for many years.

 Bradie met, fell in love and married Chris DeFalco, March 13, 2018. With this union, she became the step mother to Christopher, Samantha and Vincent. Bradie and Chris enjoyed spending as much time with one another as they could. Some of their favorite adventures included going to the motor cross track where Bradie loved to watch Chris race. They loved weekends at the lake,and camping, perhaps their most special time was just visiting family and friends. 

Bradie found joy in her family. They always added happiness to her life and put a sparkle in her smile. She loved crocheting beautiful blankets to give to those she loved, she also mastered the craft of macrame at a young age making wall hangings, camp chairs and plant holders. She also loved to color beautiful pictures with her colored pencils. Bradie's vibrant personality and beautiful smile could light up any room leaving a lasting impression on everyone fortunate enough to know her.

 Bradie had a love for animals, especially her dogs. Each one of them held a very special place in her heart, but Dannie Girl was her baby! The love she had for Dannie was unconditional. 

The world will definitely feel a void with Bradie’s passing, she was defined with unwavering kindness, compassion and quiet strength, no doubt she was welcomed by those who have gone on before with open arms. Bradie’s radiance will continue to shine! Think of her when you notice Hummingbirds hover, or see rays of sun shining through the beautiful clouds above.
