Edward R Bradley

Edward R. Bradley, 86, of Goodells, went home to be with the Lord Tuesday, January 20, 2026.

He was born March 29, 1939 in Port Huron to the late Mary Carnahan and Clark Bradley. He married Marilyn J. Webb on April 30, 1960 in St. Clair and they were married for 60 years before she preceded him in death on July 25, 2020.

Ed started working at A&P as a teenager and went on to spend a long career in the grocery business. His final employer was Vinckier Foods in Wadhams where he served as Produce Manager. Even after his formal retirement, Ed continued working part-time until he was 83 because he loved his job and customers so much. In his free time, Ed enjoyed going to and listening to baseball games, gardening, and caring for his lawn and yard. More than anything, Ed loved his family. He was a wonderful husband, and especially enjoyed family get-togethers and cookouts. He was a longtime member of Columbus Bible Church.

Ed is survived by five children, Kim (Brian) Haley, Kathy (Ron) Kincaid, Kris (Tom) Kessler, Kay (Bill) Kessler and Ed Bradley (Elizabeth Schulte); 14 grandchildren, Jay (Christi) Jahn, Adrene Jahn, Kristin Haley (Matt Herr), Kyle (Cassidy) Haley, Michelle Johnsick, Travis (Sheralyn) Kincaid, Lindsy Bolton, Devin Kessler (Taylor Beitel), Haylee Kessler (Scott Wenk), Billy Kessler, Jennifer Kessler McDowell, Kara Bradley, Jake Bradley, and Wyatt Bradley; 20 great grandchildren; eight great great grandchildren; two sisters, Ruth Manley and Alice (Al) Hux; a sister-in-law, Juanita Brown; and several nieces and nephews. In addition to his parents and wife, he was preceded in death by a granddaughter, Ashlee Joy Jahn.
