  1. Mrs Bradleys passing is a loss to all who knew her. A true Lady. Fortunately she will remain with us when we are with her family. Mr & Mrs Bradley certainly knew how to raise their children. Our deepest sympathy to the Bradley Bunch

  2. To the Bradley Family –
    Please accept my sincere condolences. Your mother was a wonderful woman and I have wonderful memories of when we were all neighbors on Lamplighter Lane. Those were the good ole days!
    May your mother be resting in the arms of Jesus and may you all be comforted by Him as well.

  3. What an amazing woman, Mom, Grandmom, Great Grandmom, etc. and to us a great longtime cherished friend. So happy she has joined Jack to live happily together forever. Rest in Peace, Rose. 💛🙏🏼💛 Vic, Linda and all the Lelii’s.
