A devoted family man, Bradford is survived by his son Joseph (Kara) and daughter Jessica (Scott). He was a proud grandfather to Joseph Jr. (Stephanie), Collin, Logan, and William through Joseph; and Blake, Spencer (Bri), Marcus (Lanie), and Isabella through Jessica. His legacy continues through his cherished great-grandchildren: Joey, Mair, Jonathan, Elliot, Emma, Elijah, and Evan, as well as three nieces and a nephew. Bradford was lovingly cared for in his later years by his sister Tonja.
He was predeceased by his parents Lee, Gerald (Jerry), and Barbara.
Bradford’s life was defined by his love for family and his energetic spirit. He found immense joy in spending time with those closest to him and was known for being engaging and full of life. A passionate sports enthusiast, Bradford was a devoted fan of Michigan’s beloved Detroit Lions and Detroit Tigers and a big MSU sports fan. Whether cheering from the stands or watching from home, he never missed an opportunity to support his teams. Golf also held a special place in Bradford’s heart—he enjoyed both playing the game and watching it with enthusiasm.
Bradford’s warmth and love left an indelible mark on all who knew him. May his memory bring comfort to those who mourn his passing and inspire them to cherish the bonds of family as he did so deeply.
Services will be held privately at the family’s request.
