I’m so sorry for your loss. Millard was a great man and will be missed greatly. Praying for you and your family.
Mr. Bradley was one of the kindest men and best neighbors anyone could ask for. He did so much to help Mother with her garden each year after Dad passed away. Miss Barbara, Marshall, and family may God give you strength and keep you through this difficult time.
I will miss Papa so much! I had the privilege of caring for Millard in the last months of his life. He was such a kind and loving man. He will never know how much of an impact he had and will continue to have in my life. Rest easy papa!
Uncle Millard was one of the finest men I know!!! He exemplified what a true loving husband and father looked like! He loved my aunt Barbara and cousin Marshal so much! He was such a kind man and will be greatly missed. Thank you uncle Millard for all you did for me! Rest in peace…May God comfort my aunt Barbara and the family and give them the strength, comfort and peace at this sad time ✝️
Sorry for family’s lost. He has two sisters still living. Dot Robert’s, and Kitty Sewell of Hartwell that he loved very much. They took him cakes , biscuits and potato soup. He ask for this every time they visited, which was twice a week.
What a sweet obituary. Thank you, Marshall. On behalf of Millard’s birth family, may I please add that he has ten brothers and sisters who pre-deceased him. His brothers are Hale Bradley, Thomas Bradley, Warren Cash Bradley, Jr. His sisters are Ruby Hopkins, Ethel Bartlett, L.B. Bailey, Nelle Hayes, “Jack” Sewell, “Bill” Bennett, and Opal Stanford. Millard is also survived by two living sisters, Mrs. Dot Roberts and Mrs. Kitty Sewell, both of Hartwell, GA. The Bradley family has always been such a loving family who cared deeply for one another. I am so proud that God allowed me to be Millard’s niece by blood. Millard was a solid man, good to the core. We all loved him. We are rejoicing today knowing that he is in Heaven with his parents and other siblings. I am speaking on behalf of Millard’s blood kin, not for those who are related by marriage or those adopted. His blood kin. We loved and still love him with all of our heart. See you again, Millard.
Millard was such a kind and gentle man. He was always proud of all his family and spoke of them with love. Dear Barbara, Marshall, Dot Roberts (Millards’ sister) and Kitty Sewell (Millards’ sister), our prayers and thoughts are with you.
~Scott & Lisa Smith family (Whitney, Madison, Grace & Alex)
May God Bless and Comfort your family. Uncle Millard had the sweetest smile and Loving spirit. Mom, his sister, will surely miss him.
I worked with Millard for several years at Schokbeton in Lavonia he was a good friend to me, he encouraged me to look for the good in so many things I have often thought of him, I am grateful for the blessing of knowing him. God bless you and your family.
Millard Bradley was one of my heroes! My Dad and I had the privilege of hunting with Millard and Marshall in the 70’s-90’s at K and C Hunting Club in Thomson, GA. I would sit and listen to Millard tell stories for hours. He taught me more about deer hunting than anyone other than my Dad. Millard was the kind of man all should strive to be like. He mixed Jesus Christ with everyday life consistently. I look forward to seeing and talking with him in heaven because he will definitely be there! May God bless the family of Millard Bradley.
