Jourdan Bradley Obituary

Jourdan Brianna Bradley, beautiful 24 year-old woman, passed on Friday, October 10, 2014. She was the beloved daughter of Marti and Mark Bradley; younger sister of Derek Bradley and Garret Bradley; loved by her family and friends. Jourdan was born on October 25, 1989 and grew up in Marysville and Arlington, Wash. She recently purchased and moved into her 1901 Craftsman-style dream home in Everett. She studied and completed her Registered Nurse degree at Everett Community College and began working at Providence Regional Medical Center of Everett in September 2012. She continued her education at University of Washington and earned her BSN degree in June 2013. Jourdan transferred to her most recent position in the critical care unit in September 2013. She enjoyed her work team, her patients and their families, stating often how much she loved her job. From her earliest days, Jourdan filled hearts with love of her sweet and caring nature. She loved classic cars, music, travel, animals, and packed a lot of spirit in her petite little body. So many memories; such a short time on this earth. Jourdan spent it well with an open heart making sure that she connected with everyone to express her appreciation and love. She reflected a universal light. Something pure the ordinary cannot yet understand. Our lives and the world around us have been illuminated. A celebration of her life will be held on Saturday, October 25, 2014 from 12:00 Noon to 3:00 p.m. at the Everett Station in the Weyerhaeuser Room, located at 3201 Smith Avenue, Everett, Wash-ington. More information is available through family and friends. A memorial fund will be established and announced via social media.

This beautiful young woman that seemed to have a spirit to match was my great niece, my sister's grand daughter. My heart and soul are pained by this awful tragedy. I am no stranger to this type of tragedy myself. My thoughts and prayers go out to my nephew, Mark, his wife, and Jourdan's two older brothers, as well as my big sister. May you all find comfort in the memories you will all hold so dear.

Marti I worked with you at the Everett Clinic for years but didn't realize this was your beautiful daughter until I was at her service. I was attending her service in support of a dear friend of mine Kristin Doohan-Jones.I am so so so sorry for your loss I know words could never take away the pain you must feel but I myself have a beautiful daughter and when you spoke on Saturday I couldn't control my tears. Please know my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this most difficult time.

Jourdan I did not know you very long, but you were such a bright light to work with. This hospital was a better place, because you were here. I know what your family is going through, as I lost my 18 year old brother unexpectedly a little over 2 years ago. My heart goes out to them in this horrible time. Heaven has one more angel above. RIP sweet girl.

I only know of Jourdan through the praise and admiration my wife spoke of her, this young and vibrant, exceptionally bright, aspiring critical care nurse she was blossoming into, here on their unit at Providence.
Such a sudden and tragic loss of life for Jourdan's family and friends to recollect.

There is nothing that I can say that will accurately describe how much I miss you. How much I love you. How amazing you are. Everything about you is beautiful.

I keep checking your guestbook and I just love seeing all these entries. Especially ones that talk about how great of a Nurse you were. I know you would be so happy to hear that. You dedicated your life to helping others. You were a gift to everyone you came in contact with. Love you so much Jourdana. I will think about you and the beauty that surrounded you every day for the rest of my life.

The loss of Jourdan breaks my heart. I didn't know her personally, but know people close to her. I can't imagine what the family is going through at a time like this. I recently lost my brother and know the pain you all must be feeling. I hope that you take comfort in your loving memories of her and know that her spirit lives on through those that loved her. My thoughts and prayers are with the entire family at this time.

Beauitful person inside and out
We cannot understand why this had to come about
She graced us with her passion to help people in need
But now I know she is freed
The stars that sparkle above in the night sky
Always remind us of her and never say goodbye
Our tears we weep, the pain so deep
Her life, an inspiration to others
My heart goes out to her father, mother, and brothers
Rest in peace Jourdan.

To the family of Jourdan:
Although we only knew Jourdan for about 12 hours she deeply touched us. In August my husband was admitted to CCU Providence for a brain tumor. Jourdan was an exceptional nurse and very professional, she not only helped my husband in his difficult time but made sure I was ok as well. I remember I was so sad that she had the next few days off because she was so wonderful to us. When I saw her picture in the paper I couldn't believe my eyes. My thoughts and prayers go out to your family, your daughter/sister was an amazing young lady. Thank you for the short time our family had with her.

Mark and Marti - I met you early October at the Italian tour in Seattle. My friend and I sat with you at the table eating pasta. I know now we were meant to meet. When I saw Mark on TV, my heart dropped. I am so sorry you lost your daughter. Just please know you have been in my prayers daily.- God brought us together for just a few moments that day in that Italian place, and I do treasure it.

Still searching for the words that can help your dear parents and brothers, but seems there just are none...You never knew me but I smiled almost daily at all your love notes to your parents that you posted to them on facebook and I felt I knew you thru both your words and the love your family has for you..I'm sure you will be just as amazing in the afterlife as you sure seemed in this one, but I know first hand how very difficult it is for those of us left behind...So glad you had such a wonderful and loving family as they will need each other more now than ever...wishing peace and love to your parents Mark and Marti and your loving brothers sweet girl <3
