Brad was born on April 22, 1964 to Larry Neeley and Betty Neeley in Lima, Ohio, and graduated from Central High School in 1982.
After graduation, Brad, amazingly, survived a 32-year career at Toys R Us and worked his way into management. He remembered his time working there fondly and made many friends along the way.
In life, Brad developed a love for many things, including The Weather Channel, Dunkin’ Donuts, Winston Lights and The National Champion Georgia Bulldogs. He valued his privacy, pinched his pennies and loved to gossip. Brad was magnificently hardheaded and equally as generous. He adored his family and spoiled his dogs beyond all reason.
Brad was preceded by parents Larry Neeley and Betty Neeley, and his first Bulldog Muncie. He is survived by siblings: Lori Brooke (Brad Brooke) and Rick Neeley (Kim Schuler) nieces: Ashley Brown (Chris Brown) and Shelby Printz (Taylor Printz) nephew: Matthew Neeley great nieces: Addyson Brown, Emmyrson Brown and Makynzie Printz great nephew: David Printz and his beloved dog and roommate Dooley, and an army of people who knew and cared about him. He is sorely missed by them all.
Services will be held at Parkhill Cemetery, 4161 Macon Road, Columbus, GA 31907, on Tuesday, March 15, 2022 at 1 pm.
Fond memories and expressions of sympathy may be shared at www.shcolumbus.com for the Neeley family.
