Heart broken and flooded with memories we announce the passing of our Hero, our Rock, Husband, Dad, Grampy, Big Grampy, Brother, Uncle & Friend, James A Bradley, husband of Shirley (Totten) Bradley. After a lengthy battle with alzheimer's, James passed peacefully, at Willow House, Loch Lomond Village, on Wednesday, May 27, 2015 with his family near, keeping him safe and comfortable. We know his Dad’s presence was there watching and waiting patiently to meet him. He was born on January 11, 1929 in South Hampton, NS, a son of the late Harold and Emma (Snider) Bradley. James loved to sing and play his guitar. He also loved animals and had a great way with them. He liked to hunt, fish, share stories and laughs with family and friends. He worked in the logging, trucking and fishing industries over his full, long life. Many of his abilities were self-taught, like playing guitar and boat making. We admired his strong values and patient way of approaching life. And we are sure he would count his greatest achievement to be raising and guiding his family. Rest easy, Dad.
