Cherished, devoted husband, father, grandpa and son passed away suddenly on Oct. 11, 2014.

He was born in Austin, Minnesota, on April 28, 1962, to Alvin and Marlene (Ohm) Schroeder. He graduated from Hayfield High School and received a BS in computer science from Mankato State University. He married Judy Kucler on June 12, 1982.

Brad was a kind, fun-loving family man with a warm smile and a quick wit who touched everyone he met. His greatest joys in life were his family and as an ever-devoted fan, cheering on the Vikings.

He is survived by his wife, Judy; sons: Ryan (Wendy), and Jared; grandchildren: Lucas and Audrey; father Alvin; grandpuppies: Ajax and Cooper; and many nieces, nephews; aunts, uncles; and cousins.

He is preceded in death by his mother, Marlene; grandparents: Arthur and Julia Schroeder, and Edward and Erma Ohm.

Brad wanted anyone who attends the service to not dress up. He wanted everyone in comfortable clothes (preferably jeans), (maybe Vikings wear?).

A memorial service will take place at 11 a.m. Wednesday, Oct. 15, 2014, at Prince of Peace Lutheran Church 13901 Fairview Dr. Burnsville, with visitation one hour prior to service at church.
