He was born July 11, 1977, in Fort Smith, Arkansas, the son of Harry and Pamela Holstein Padgett. He married Angie Dodge on June 9, 2000 at Mansfield, Arkansas. He was dedicated to Baxter Healthcare as a Mechanical Engineer and was proud of all the employees that he worked with. Brandon lived in Mountain Home since moving from Fayetteville, Arkansas in 2000 after receiving his engineering degree from the University of Arkansas. He loved sharing the lake life with friends and family, sky skiing, surfing, swimming and fishing. He was passionate about The Bomb Squad and all the kids (chumps) he had the honor to mentor. He was always the life of the party just wanting to make people laugh and have a good time. His newest hobby and passion was pickle ball. He loved the people he played with as much as he loved the game. But above all else was his kids, he worked hard everyday to provide for them and to teach them how to have a life they could be proud of.
