Bradley Pulley of Plano, Texas passed away April 15, 2026 at the age of 37. He was born to Billy Ray Pulley, Jr. and Michelle Shipp on August 24, 1988 in Plano, Texas.
A man of Christian faith, Brad found joy in the simple pleasures that fueled his adventurous spirit. He possessed an enthusiasm for things that sparked his imagination as a boy. Whether he was working on his truck, hitting the open road on a motorcycle, or driving RC cars, Brad approached his passions with a sense of wonder and genuine excitement.
Brad was known for his sharp style, most notably his impressive collection of Air Jordans, which he wore with genuine pride. He had a rare gift for finding happiness in these moments, and his radiant energy had a natural way of lifting the spirits of everyone he met.
However, those who held him dear knew that his greatest quality wasn’t found in his hobbies, but in his character. Brad possessed an incredibly kind soul, one that offered a quiet word of encouragement or a helping hand without being asked. He moved through the world with a softness and a genuine care for others that left a lasting mark on every heart he touched.
Brad is survived by his mother, Michelle Gates of Plano, Texas; father, Billy Ray Pulley, Jr. of London, Texas; son, William Schmitt; sister, Holly Pulley; brothers Riley and Tyler Gates; grandmother, Sandra Chapman; and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and many dear friends who will carry his memory forward.
