Brady William Albert, beloved son, brother, and friend, passed away unexpectedly on July 22, 2024. He was 21 years old.
Brady was born on March 12, 2003, to Anne Duttinger and Paul Elliott Albert in State College. From a young age, he brought immense joy to everyone around him with his infectious laughter and compassionate heart. He grew up in Pennsylvania Furnace on the family farm, where he attended State College Area School District graduating in 2021.
Brady was a beacon of kindness with a gentle soul that touched all who knew him. He had a remarkable ability to make friends wherever he went, and his loyalty was unwavering. Whether it was trading jabs with his loving brothers or helping a friend in need, Brady was always ready to lend a hand.
His love for hunting, fishing and dirt bike riding was evident to all who knew him. He spent many weekends riding his dirt bike in the mountains, finding peace and solace in nature. Brady was also a passionate animal caregiver to his cats Milo, Lola, Finnegan, Luna and beloved ducks Dorthy, Glenn and Sassy.
