Brady E Drummond Jr.

Brady Everett Drummond, Jr was called home to our Lord on Saturday November 26, 2022. Born February 1, 1931, to Brady E Drummond, Sr & Frances Brown Drummond in Rome, Georgia. He married Barbara Anne Bohanan on November 2, 1952, and they were blessed with 70 wonderful years of marriage. Brady was an avid servant to his church, his family, and his friends. He attended Trinity United Methodist Church and was a member of the Joe Tarpley Fellowship Sunday School Class. His strong sense of faith, his smile, and his loyalty to others will continue to be an influence in the lives of his family and friends.

Brady graduated from Rome High School then attended the University of Georgia until joining the Marine Corps. After serving in the Marine Corps, he returned home to complete his engineering degree at Southern Tech. During his working career he was employed by Atlanta Gas Light in Rome and Myrtle Beach South Carolina and Inland Container in Rome, Memphis Tennessee, and Dallas Texas. He retired with Davis Core and Pad in Rome. Brady, or “The Bear” as he was known by many young men seeking company with his three daughters was devoted to his hometown of Rome and especially the East side of town where you could hear him call out his loyalty to the “Big Blue” Gladiators.
