Brad was born and raised in Kanab, Utah where he attended Kanab High. During his time in Kanab, Brad was an All-Star athlete in football, basketball, baseball, and track. In 1988 he set the Utah State record with 7 punt returns for touchdowns in a season, a record that still stands today. (No one has had more than 4 in a season since.)

Brad was baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints by his father and later served a full time mission in Connecticut, where he touched the lives of many.

Brad was always the funniest guy in the room. He was known for his big heart, genuine love for others, and would give the shirt off his back to anyone. An active community member, he was a friend to all who crossed paths with him. Over his lifetime he created many lifelong friends whom he considered family. His kids and granddaughter were his pride and joy. He was happiest when surrounded and making memories with those he loved. He often referred to his parents, Donald and Renae Dastrup, as his best friends. Brad had a strong work ethic (which he credited to his dad, Don, that led to the creation and ownership of multiple successful businesses.

As an avid sports fan, Brad spent much of his time watching sports, collecting autographs, coaching his kids, and playing with them. Other hobbies included umpiring/playing softball, listening to music, motorcycling, hunting, boating, drinking Dr Pepper, and all things outdoors.
