Our amazing father and grandfather, Bradley Joseph Aitken, passed away on August 3, 2021, at the age of 63.
Brad was born on August 2, 1958, to Bernell Tuckett and Babera Jean Penrod Aitken. Brad was blessed to have four brothers and one sister to grow up with. He loved to be outdoors any chance he was given and spent many of his younger years hunting in the mountains near his home.
After graduating from Spanish Fork High School, Brad enjoyed traveling and driving. He quickly incorporated driving into his career so that he could spend as much time as possible on the open road.
Brad had an infectious smile and could make anyone around him laugh. He was very quick witted and always had a good comeback or a joke to share.
Brad married Beverly Albright and was blessed with his daughter Taylene Aitken who has given him two beautiful grandchildren. They were later divorced. He then married Rebecca Zobell and during this marriage his son, Camren Aitken, was born.
Brad’s greatest joy and priority in life were his children. His face lit up at any mention of them or his grandchildren. Even when traveling for work, he made it a priority to be present in any way he could for everything going on in their lives. He was an attentive father to Camren and Taylene was never far from his heart. He will be sorely missed by those he left behind.
The family would like to give a special thanks to Kota and Dominic who started out as roommates to Brad but became like children to him. The family is also overwhelmingly grateful for the ICU staff, caregivers, and Doctor Cook at Timpanogas Hospital for all they did for Brad and his family.
Brad was preceded in death by his loving parents, Bernell and Jean, as well as his brothers Jerry Aitken and Bryan Aitken. He is survived by his children, Taylene and Camren, his two grandchildren, his brother Ronald (Ann) Aitken, his sister Janell (Kevin) Dunn, and his brother Robert (Lori) Aitken. He is also survived by his two sisters-in-law, Lynnda Aitken and Mindy Aitken.
A graveside service will be held on Friday, August 6, 2021, at 10:30 in the morning at the Provo City Cemetery located at 610 South State Street in Provo, Utah. Condolences may be sent to www.walkermemorials.com

August 5, 2021 at 3:34 pmI lost custody of Brad in my divorce from his brother Bryan but we had 13 great years to hang out and talk about any & everything. No subject taboo. We would laugh at the crazy ideas we could come up play cards as our kids enjoyed their cousins. Brad was darn good at cards and not bad at playing pool either. So caring and tender, taking care of mom Jean in her last days. Never one to brag and ever so curious how everything went together. He took apart watches to 8 track tapes strung around and around his bedroom. Brad was there when fire destroyed our home, and there for any milestone in his nieces and nephews lives. Mañana Brad. Love you bro.
