Steven Wade Bragdon

Glenburn-Steven W. Bragdon, died unexpectedly February 7th 2026 at his home. He was born in Island Falls, son of Arnie Bragdon and Norma (Hall) Bragdon.

 Steve worked as an Operating Engineer at Lane Construction/Northeast Paving for 40 years until his retirement in 2020. He loved his work and walked many miles alongside the grinder in Maine, Pennsylvania, and Florida. His dedication to his craft was recognized by those who he worked closely with. 

 While working long hours Steve was able to build his dream "camp" on North Twin Lake. This would become his most cherished place where he was most happy. He loved spending time with his family at camp, on the water fishing, water skiing, and sitting by the fire at night. He also loved ice fishing and most of all snowmobiling on the trails with family and friends.

 Since retiring Steve used his carpentry skills passed down from his father to create custom furniture from wood harvested from his own land. He loved spending time at camp which is where he would be whenever possible. He loved having his children and grandchildren visit. He was very proud of Brock and Taylor and loved being a Grampie to four beautiful grandchildren. 

 Steve is survived by his wife of 39 years, Monica; his son, Brock Bragdon and his wife, Alyssa; his daughter, Taylor Pardilla and her husband, Logan; grandchildren, Nash Bragdon, Autumn, Chase and Cole Pardilla; his mother, Norma Bragdon; step mother; Rose Bragdon; aunt, Marilyn Hall, and special Aunt, Sandra Troutt; brother-in-law, Matt Guiggey and his wife, Debbie; sisters- in-law, Kelley Curtis and her husband, Steve and Lorri Day and her husband, Layton; many special nieces and nephews and cousins and special friend, Ed Homstead. Steve was predeceased by his father, Arnie, and sister, Dawn Marie.
