Bradley Steven Pico Obituary
In Loving Memory of Bradley Steven Pico
Bradley Steven Pico, was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and a lifelong Arizonan. He was a man of great faith, steady strength, and enduring cheer.
Family was the joy and center of his life. He married his sweetheart, Christy Kempton, in the Mesa Arizona Temple in 1985, and together they raised six children—Katie (Spencer), Preston (Rachel), Brent (Cami), John (Riley), Anne, and Aaron. They were blessed with 14 cherished grandchildren. He spoke of his family often and with great pride, never missing a chance to share their stories and celebrate their accomplishments.
Brad dedicated his life to serving others—as a missionary in London for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, an educator and leader in Arizona schools, and through countless quiet acts of kindness. He was passionate about and loved to play, watch and coach the game of football. He also found joy in hard work, especially through construction and his granite business. His charisma, laughter, selflessness and generosity lifted everyone he met.
He found deep purpose in mentoring youth, quietly shaping young lives with patience, wisdom, and Christlike love. Through encouragement and steady guidance, he helped them see the strength within themselves and inspired them to grow in both faith and life.
He served others with full hands and a full heart, often expressing his love by preparing and sharing meals. He found joy in gathering people around the table, always making sure they were fed and cared for. He enthusiastically nourished not just bodies, but souls.
Brad’s legacy is one of love, faith in Jesus Christ, service, devotion to family and education. He will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
