Brandan Norman Mathew Bullard, 52, passed away on March 18, 2025, in Englewood, Colorado. Brandan was born one of two brothers, on October 25, 1972, in Denver, Colorado to Barbara and Butch Bullard. Brandan lived a life filled with creativity, passion, and an unwavering love for those around him.
Brandan graduated from Arapahoe High School, an experience he always was proud of. Unlike many, he truly enjoyed his high school years and looked back on them fondly. His career was just as diverse as his interests—he was highly skilled in plumbing and later transitioned into house cleanouts and property management. He had a knack for finding treasures and keeping his home full of items he loved to sell online.
Music was at the heart of Brandan’s life. He not only listened to it but also created his own lyrics and played multiple instruments, including drums, guitar, keyboard, bass, piano, and even the harmonica. If you ever saw Brandan out and about, he likely had his little Bose speaker with him; at home, it was always playing or sitting nearby, ready to fill the room with sound. His love for music was a reflection of his just happy personality—full of energy, joy, and creativity.
Beyond music, Brandan had a wide range of hobbies that brought him happiness. He loved golfing and eagerly anticipated annual tournaments. Horseshoes were another favorite pastime. He also enjoyed building model cars and engaging in photography. His creativity knew no bounds—he even designed his own Monopoly game. One of his greatest joys was making children laugh; he had a special talent for crafting toys out of the most unexpected materials for his daughter.
Brandan had an extraordinary ability to bring people together. Whether among friends or family, he was the one who reminded everyone that things could always be improved with his signature phrases: "Well, what can we do to fix it?" and "Remember, Keep it Simple Stupid." His infectious laughter and positive outlook made him a source of comfort and joy to those who knew him.
He is survived by his loving partner of over 15 years, Nancy French Mack; his beloved daughter, Braelynn Bullard; his ex-wife and mother of his daughter, Leigh Viner; his nephews Bryce and Rylan; his stepmother Tina Nunnelly Bullard; and many cherished cousins, aunts, and uncles and limitless friends. He was preceded in death by his mother Barbara Bullard, father Butch Bullard, and brother Bryce Bullard.
Brandan firmly believed that Jesus was always watching over us. He often reassured those around him by saying that Jesus was right here with us—and now he is reunited with his family in heaven.
Brandan will be terribly missed on this earth but will live on forever in the hearts of those who loved him. May his memory bring comfort and joy to all who were fortunate enough to know him.
A Celebration of Life Service will be held at 11:00 A.M., Friday, April 4, 2025 at Drinkwine Family Chapel.
