Bradford C. Smith of Oak Hill passed away unexpectedly on Wednesday, Feb. 4, 2015.
He was the beloved husband of Maria E. Smith and devoted father of Melina Smith and Silvana Smith.
Brad was born in 1956 in Amityville, NY. He later moved to Falls Church, where he graduated from George C. Marshall High School. He attended George Mason University and worked as a systems engineering contractor in the government sector.
Brad married the love of his life, Maria, in 1992. He was a kind, loving husband who adored his wife and enjoyed sharing his passion for music, biking and life with her. Their home together has always been a revolving door as Brad loved hosting friends for outdoor barbecues and social gatherings.
As a loving father, Brad spent many years coaching his daughters’ soccer teams, taking them to music and play practices, and truly enjoying watching them blossom. He was so proud of his girls.
In lieu of flowers, donations to an educational fund for Brad’s children may be made to Maria E. Smith and mailed to:
