Bradford Stanley Munroe

Munroe, Bradford Stanley – 75, Halifax. Passed away surrounded by his family on October 28, 2013, in the VG Site, QEII.

Brad served 34 years in the Canadian Armed Forces with the RCD (Royal Canadian Dragoons) and the VIII CH (VIII Canadian Hussars). Brad will be remembered for his strong, hardy laugh that drew people from all corners of a room. Once in his company, people enjoyed his wit and his large catalogue of humorous and unforgettable quotes. Brad’s parting message to his family was “Chin up, face forward” which sums up exactly the way he lived his life.
