Bradford "Brad" Saul Gaudreau Sr., of North Attleboro, MA, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, December 21, 2022 at Sturdy Memorial Hospital in Attleboro, MA.
Born in Pawtucket, RI, on February 20, 1938, he was the son of the late Saul H. Gaudreau and the late Marion M. (Fields) Gaudreau.
A graduate of Attleboro High School, Brad worked for more than thirty years as an Engraver for Lambert Engraving in Attleboro, MA.
He resided in Attleboro for most of his life until moving to North Attleboro in 1976, and proudly and honorably served our country in the United States Army.
Known to many as "Harley Rider", Brad genuinely enjoyed his Harley Davidson motorcycle and attended and supported every Harley or motorcycle event that he could. He was a warm and outgoing man who loved being with friends and socializing with others. Brad was a passionate outdoorsman who loved everything about nature and the outdoors, especially hunting and fishing. He was a proud American who could readily be spotted with the flag on the back of his Jeep. More than anything, Brad cherished spending time with his family and held a special place in his heart for his dog, "Bandit".
Brad was the loving father of Bradford S. Gaudreau Jr. of Attleboro, MA; Daniel P. Gaudreau and his wife, Gayle P. Gaudreau, of Auburn, MA; Tammi J. Titus and her husband, Gregory P. Titus, of Cranston, RI; Wayne M. Gaudreau of Rehoboth, MA; and Kevin D. Gaudreau and his wife, Valerie J. Gaudreau, of Attleboro, MA. He was the proud and adoring grandfather of 11 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren and was expecting a new great-grandson. He was the brother of the late Gail Harwood and the late Brian Gaudreau. He leaves several nieces and nephews and many dear friends. Brad was the former husband of Ileen Grace Hogue of Dayville, CT.
