"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."
– John 15:13

Michael Norman Bradley was born February 3, 1954.  His life was well-lived, and he was well-loved! The Lord called him home in a peaceful manner at the St. Francis, on Thursday, December 17, 2020 in his 66th year.

This gentle, loving, caring and wonderful man has left a permanent mark etched on our hearts and will be supremely missed by his wife and best friend of 42 years, Brenda. Michael spent his life as a hardworking, dedicated, faithful and loving man.

Born in Muskogee, Oklahoma to Louis and Bertha Bradley, he was born the fifth child of eleven. Family was undoubtedly, the pivotal essence of Michael's life. He will be greatly missed by his immediate family of siblings: Lawrence Bradley, Terrance Bradley, Charles Bradley, Debra Smith, Annetta Chatman, Sarahetta Brown, Frankie Vann, Ronald Bradley, and Reginald Bradley, and by his extended family of aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends. He was preceded in death by his parents, Louis and Bertha Bradley, and his brother Louis Bradley Jr.

Michael served four years in the Air Force, graduated from Northeastern State University, and retired from Chevron/Texaco Oil.

He had a long-standing relationship with God and was very blessed with his faith.

The family would like to thank all the health care professionals from the EMT's to the hospital nurses, doctors, and staff for their great care in the fight for his life.

Michael will be forever remembered for his beautiful smile, gentle eyes, caring heart, loving embrace, and unconditional love.  Although our hearts are heavy, we will celebrate his life and find comfort that he is in heaven watching over us.
