In Loving Memory of Bradley Trujillo
With heavy hearts and profound sorrow, we remember and honor the life of Bradley Trujillo, 31, of Santa Fe ,whose life was tragically cut short in the early morning hours of February 15, 2026.
On that quiet Sunday morning, at approximately 1:47 a.m., officers from the Santa Fe Police Patrol Team C responded to reports of a motor vehicle crash near the intersection of Agua Fria Street and Arroyo de Las Cruces Road. The collision involved a vehicle and a motorcycle. Despite the swift response of officers and paramedics from the Santa Fe Fire Department, Bradley was found at the scene with no signs of life and was beyond medical intervention.
The heartbreaking news has left his family, friends, and the entire Santa Fe community grieving an unimaginable loss. At just 31 years old, Bradley had so much life ahead of him—dreams yet to be fulfilled, milestones yet to be celebrated, and memories yet to be created.
Bradley was more than a name in a report. He was a son, a family member, a friend, and a valued member of his community. Those who knew him describe him as someone full of spirit, someone who carried himself with authenticity and warmth. Whether through laughter shared with loved ones, quiet moments of reflection, or the simple everyday kindness he extended to others, Bradley made an impact that will not fade.
Motorcycling often represents freedom, adventure, and a passion for the open road. For many, it is not just a means of transportation but a reflection of individuality and joy. Bradley’s presence on the road that morning speaks to a life lived with movement and purpose. Though his journey ended far too soon, the imprint he leaves behind remains powerful and enduring.
As investigators from the Santa Fe Police Traffic Unit and Crime Scene Unit continue their work, the focus for Bradley’s loved ones is not on the circumstances of his passing, but on the beautiful moments that defined his life. The outpouring of love, prayers, and support from neighbors and friends is a testament to the mark he left on those around him.
In times like these, words often feel insufficient. Grief is a heavy burden, but it is softened by shared memories and the strength of community. Bradley’s life reminds us of the fragility of each day and the importance of holding our loved ones close. His smile, his voice, and his presence will forever echo in the hearts of those who knew him.
To his family, we extend our deepest condolences. May you find comfort in the love that surrounds you and in the knowledge that Bradley’s memory will live on—not only in your hearts, but in the stories, laughter, and moments that will continue to be shared in his honor.
As this case remains under active investigation, authorities are asking anyone who witnessed the crash or has information to contact Traffic Officer James McCowen at (505) 955-5205.
Today, we remember Bradley Trujillo not for the tragedy that took him, but for the life he lived. May he rest in eternal peace, and may his loved ones find strength in the days ahead.
