MANSFIELD: Bradley “Brad” Loescher passed away on November 14, 2024. He was 60.
He was born on January 21, 1964 in Mansfield, Ohio to parents Kenneth and Roberta (Phipps) Loescher. After graduating from high school Brad became a jack of all trades, working as a mechanic, a maintenance man, food service at Lazarus, a delivery driver, as well as various other jobs throughout life. His passion, however, was cooking and catering food. Through this passion, he began a catering business with a friend and catered many graduation parties and events.
On June 5, 1993, Brad married the love of his life Deanna Ferguson and the couple shared 31 wonderful years of adventures and memories together.
Brad was a 26-year member of the Lexington-Shelby Elks Lodge # 2554, where he served in various leadership roles, and was also a member of the Order of the Owls Nest #1152. In his spare time he enjoyed spending time on the golf course, fishing, being outdoors, and of course cooking food. Above all else though, spending time with his family and friends was his greatest joy in life. He will be greatly missed by everyone who had the pleasure of calling him friend.
He is survived by his loving wife Deanna Loescher, stepson Anthony Alonzo, granddaughter Alexis Alonzo, sister Linda (Steve) Black, niece Kylee Black, mother-in-law Beulia Ferguson, as well as many good friends.
In addition to his parents, Brad is preceded in death by his maternal grandparents Robert and Harriet Phipps, and paternal grandparents Roy and Irene Loescher.
