Brian F. Pardee

Brian F. Pardee, of Lewiston, NY, passed away peacefully on Saturday, October 11, 2025, under the compassionate care of Niagara Hospice. He was 66.

Born in Niagara Falls, NY, Brian was the son of Betty Stephens and the late Franklin Pardee. He dedicated over two decades of service to General Motors Powertrain in Tonawanda, retiring in 2024. On October 18, 2007, he married Linda Stephens in Lewiston, beginning a partnership rooted in love and shared joy.

A true motorhead at heart, Brian found exhilaration at Ransomville Speedway, where he raced street stock with passion and pride. He also found serenity in the hum of a lawnmower, especially while tending the fairways at Niagara Falls Country Club—one of his personal havens of peace. His deep love for animals was evident in the care he gave to his dogs, cats, and cherished flock of sheep.

Brian’s legacy lives on through his beloved wife, Linda; his loving son, Vincent Pardee; and his caring step-son, Aaron (Heidi) Grandin. He was a proud grandfather to Matthew and Joseph Pardee, and Brianna and Gabrielle Grandin. He is also survived by his siblings, Douglas (Ona) Pardee and Colleen Pardee, along with many nieces and nephews who will remember his warmth and humor.

Funeral services will be held on Thursday, October 16, 2025, at 2:30 PM at the Ontario House (formerly known as the Stoen Jug), 358 Main Street, Youngstown. A Celebration of Life will follow at 3 PM. Friends are invited to attend.

Arrangements entrusted to HARDISON FUNERAL HOMES, INC., 401 Ridge Street, Lewiston.
