Mark Bredall, 62, passed away at the Veteran's Memorial Hospital in Denver, CO. He was born to the late Dr. and Mrs. A.J. Bredall in Washington, DC. Mark married his wife, Judy, of Colorado Springs, July 19, 1991, in Vinton, IA, where their friendship began during junior high school.
Following graduation from the University of Iowa where he was a brother of the Iowa Gamma chapter of the Sigma Phi Epsilon Fraternity, he received his commission as an officer in the USAF, serving seven years as aircraft commander in a KC-135 refueler in the Vietnam War, flying over 300 sorties.
Captain Bredall was awarded the Airman's Medal, February 21, 1972, for heroism involving risk of life, rescuing two small children from a burning building. Also, Mark was an FBI Special Agent and aviation coordinator in south Florida from 1978-1987. A man of great versatility, he retired as a broker with A.G. Edwards & Sons, Inc., December 31, 2005.
He was an avid sports fan and loved fishing, gardening, duplicate bridge and walking his dog, "Annie." Few know he was a wonderful singer with a select group while at the university.
Mark deeply loved his daughter, Erin and his son, Steve (wife, Wendy) and their three sons: Connor, Tyler and Ethan. His brother, Steve Bredall of Dallas, TX., has been a source of comfort and wisdom to us all. A Memorial Service was held Tuesday, August 8, 1:00 p.m. at the First Lutheran Church, 1515 N. Cascade Ave.
