Mr. Julius D. Bradley, affectionately known as ""JuBaby,"" departed this life suddenly on January 28, 2020.
Julius received his education in the Chesterfield School System and graduated from Petersburg High School in 2005.
Julius was very kind-hearted and loving. He loved his family and his kids. He and his brothers spent a lot of time together and shared a special bond that can never be broken. He enjoyed spending time with his family and friends. His smile could brighten up a room.
Julius loved dressing from head to toe. He had a style of walk that didn't put a crease in his shoes that was probably inherited from his Uncle Ray Ray. He always kept his tennis shoes clean. He loved playing the lottery, shooting dice, listening to music, and fixing up cars.
