Watson, Bradley F.
Bradley Frederick Watson, 63, of Fairport, New York, passed away suddenly at home on the 11th of June, 2024, leaving behind a community that valued his presence and cherished his willingness to lend a listening ear.

He dedicated years of service to the Town of Penfield, after which he channeled his passion for automotive mechanics into founding Watson’s Garage on the family property, a business that became as much a part of his legacy as his generous spirit.

He is preceded in departure by his parents, Clarence Day Watson, Jr, and Barbara (Fox) Watson.
Friends and family are invited to Calling Hours on Monday, June 24th, between the hours of 4-6 pm at the Richard H. Keenan Funeral Home located at 7501 Pittsford-Palmyra Road, Fairport, NY 14450.

I am shocked and very saddened by the sudden passing of such a warm and friendly man. He always had a smile on his face and something good to say. Brad was someone you proudly called a friend. My deepest sympathy to Jean and the rest of his family. He will be greatly missed very much by very many. Rest in Peace my friend.

Brad was an amazing guy. He could make ‘big’ car problems look simple and always with his wonderful smile. He will be impossible to replace in the car world, but referrals to good friend Chris Holschuh will continue. He made my Corvette ‘drive-able’ with a power steering conversion. He ‘saved’ my Dad’s old Pontiac with very minor changes after sitting idle for over 40 years. A magician in his trade and a friend for life. He will be sorely missed. We wish God’s blessings to Jean.

Glad I stopped in to see Brad today or I wouldn’t have known he had passed. We didn’t see each other often anymore but we were best friends from high school and it just kept going. Fixing cars, double dating and Best Men in each other’s wedding. He was a great friend through all these years. I will miss him!
