Obituary for Bradley Scott Pabody
Bradley Scott Pabody peacefully passed away at his home in Gettysburg on Saturday, May 14, 2022.
Brad was born March 16, 1957 in Savannah, Georgia. He was the son of Nancy (Hoadley) Pabody and the late Ernest Pabody.
He retired after serving twenty-five years as the Branch Chief of the National Fire Data Center under the US Fire Administration in October, 2017. Brad came to the NFDC from New Jersey in 1992, where he had spent nine years working as the Assistant Fire Chief and the NFIRS State Program Manager.
