Our beloved dad and pop pop, William (Bill) R. Bradford passed away after a brief illness on November 3, 2023 at the age of 94 years young. He was born March 25, 1929 in Lima, Ohio. He was one of 4 children, all of who predeceased him, Richard (Dick), Robert (Bob) and Rosie.

He married Jean Ferral Lee, April 14, 1950, who predeceased him. They had 5 children. He is survived by his son, Tim Bradford (Diana), and his two daughters, Jane Ware (Ed) and Terri Kuretski (Jim) and daughter in law Carole Petropulos. He is predeceased by two sons, Jerry Petropulos and Roger Bradford. He was a loving pop-pop to 17 grandchildren, 16 great-grandchildren and his first great-great grandchild is due December 2023. He will be greatly missed by all those that knew and loved him especially his furry four legged nurse mate, Olivia.
