Brady J. Randolph
Brady J. Randolph, 47, of Zanesville, passed away peacefully surrounded by his family on Thursday, June 25, 2026, at the Ohio State University James Center.
He was born on August 27, 1978, in Zanesville, the son of Don and Francie (Neff) Holdren. Brady graduated from Maysville High School in 1997 and worked as a heavy equipment operator for Trucco Construction Company for several years.
Brady loved everything about dirt bikes- racing, tinkering on them, and riding around with his family. He was an avid outdoorsman who was always fishing, straightening up his garage, and taking on new projects.
He was very proud of his children; if he was not riding dirt bikes with Derek, then he was spending time with Sara.
Brady was a hardworking and caring son, husband, father, brother, and friend who will be dearly missed by the ones he leaves behind.
In addition to his parents, Don and Francie, Brady is survived by his beloved wife of twenty-three years, Nancy (Wilson) Randolph, whom he married on May 31, 2003; his son and daughter, Derek Randolph and Sara Randolph; his brother, Clint (Mandy) Randolph; his nephews and nieces, Jared (Kaleigh) Bruce, Ross (Madeline) Randolph, Grace Mock, Delaney Mock, and Ava Randolph; his great-nephew, Foster Randolph; his mother-in-law, Zampa Wilson; his beloved dog, Lola Reese Randolph; as well as several aunts including Susan Randolph Overbay, uncles, cousins, and friends.
Brady is preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Bob and Sunny Neff; his father-in-law, Robert Wilson; his aunt, Bobby Creeks; as well as his dog, Ranger.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations to be made in Brady’s honor to their charity of choice.
Visitations for Brady will be held from 3 PM to 7 PM on Tuesday, June 30, 2026, at the Farus Funeral Home of Duncan Falls. A funeral service will take place the following day at 11 AM at the funeral home. Pastor Jamie Harrop will officiate the service. In keeping with Brady’s wishes, a caring cremation will take place afterward.
