A visitation will be held Tuesday, October 18, 2022 from 1 to 7PM at Dutcher Funeral Home in Bronson. Interment of ashes will be held at a later date at Adams Cemetery.

Brad was born May 23, 1970 in Sturgis to Daniel and Sandra (Smith) Ludwick. He graduated from Bronson High School in 1988 and attended trade school to become an electrician. Brad currently owned and operated Ludwick Controls. He had previously worked for Burr Oak Tool and Die and Ludwick Electric.

Brad married Lyshell Modert on October 29, 1993 in Gatlinburg, TN. They have spent the past 30 years together and were soon to celebrate their 29th wedding anniversary.

Brad grew up on McMahon Drive as one of the little rebels of the neighborhood. He was an outdoorsman who loved hunting, 4-wheeling and anything with an engine that he could make faster. He was an animal lover and a devoted husband and father. He loved coaching and being involved in his children’s sporting events, from elementary to college. Brad was a very kind, giving soul – a stranger to none and always available to help anyone who needed a hand.

Brad is survived by his wife Lyshell; his children Jordan (Katie) Ludwick of Bronson, Larissa Ludwick of Coldwater; his parents Dan (Cheryl) Ludwick of Bronson, Sandy (Gary) Sternamen of Arcadia, FL; his sister Carla Ludwick of Battle Creek; several aunts, uncles, brothers and sisters-in-law , nieces, nephews, cousins and many friends. He was preceded in death by his grandparents Jackie & George Smith, Dolores & Floyd Ludwick and uncles Ted, Florian and Charles Ludwick.
