It has been one year since God called you away. Hopefully you are with Mom, Billy, and Dorothy. The pain of losing you is still there and I guess in time it will lessen but for now I will deal with it. I miss you sooooo much but know you are in a place where there is no more pain and for that I thank God. You are still my hero and I love you! Your sister Mickey

You are my hero! In my mind I know you are in a better place where there is no pain. You are at peace and I understand that, but I wish I could explain it to my heart. There is nothing in life that prepares you for losing someone you love..nothing! I should have hugged you tighter and longer the last time I saw you. I love you and will miss you forever. Mickey

I've known Tommy all my life. My brother Billy and Tom have been friends all their lives, Tommy was like a brother to me,he went on vacations ,always at my parents house while I was growing up him and my dad used to wrestle all the time and him and billy would always get caught doing something they shouldn't have been doing and my dad would get both of them and wrestle them down, We have quite a few memories through the years births,deaths,weddings,and the usual holidays I never will forget him,such a great person and Doris and family I want you to know you are in my prayers ,I wish you all well and my condolences to such a great person!!!

I never had the pleasure to meet Mr. Tom Bradley, but I have met and know his legacy, my colleague and friend, Zac. One of a man's great inspirations are his children, and those children are often a reflection of the man. It is clear that Mr. Bradley was a great family man, a great hero for our country, and he lives on through his children. My condolences to the entire family. May the joy he brought to your lives, overcome the pain of his passing.
