Bradley William Davis

Bradley William Davis, 23, passed away unexpectedly on August 31, 2024, during a hiking trip with his brother and close friends. He was 28 days away from marrying the love of his life, Sarah Stark.

If you knew Bradley you were warmed by his smile, his kindness and how considerate and conscientious he was to everyone he encountered.

Bradley was a one of a kind, unique person. His creative and curious mind inspired him to often choose the road less traveled, leading him to so many accomplishments and enriching experiences. 

Bradley worked hard to earn his Eagle Scout Rank, and was a leader and mentor to the rest of his fellow Boy Scouts.

He received a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering and Physics from Valparaiso University. He had just begun his career as a process engineer at Ace Technologies in Indianapolis.

Above all of these accomplishments was his constant and devoted faith in God. Bradley converted to the Catholic Church in 2021 after encountering Jesus Christ in the Blessed Sacrament and has been praying daily Holy Hours ever since.

Bradley’s love for God overflowed into every person he encountered and everything that he did. He was an active and admired parishioner at Holy Rosary Catholic Church in Indianapolis.

Bradley is survived by his fiancé Sarah, parents Howard and Shannon, brother Mitchell and grandmother Carolyn.
