Mr. Ernest Philip Bradley Sr.

My Dad and Mom, Floyd and Edith Garrison, became such good friends with Phil and my sister and I became very fond of him as well. He would call them on the phone and have long chats and always had them laughing. He was one of a kind and a great Gentleman. He will be missed by all of us who knew him here in Port Republic, VA

Dear Aunt Zella and Brad,

I was so sorry to learn of the passing of Uncle Phil. While many years have passed I will never forget his silliness and larger than life personality. He provided such comfort and strength to my family during the passing of my father, his brother, Ed, and for that I am forever grateful. I know that crazy Bradley Clan was right there waiting to welcome him with open arms when the doors of Heaven opened for him. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. I'm so sorry for your loss.

To the Family of Mr. Philip Bradley, Sr.: My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. May God put His loving arms around you and give you peace as you mourn the loss of your dear one. You have such a wonderful and loving family. I love each of you.

Phil was such a wonderful friend to my mom and dad, Floyd and Edith Garrison, and continued to stay in touch with my sister and I after the death of our parents. He was so full of life and I know he is up in heaven sharing his stories. My thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time.

Dear Brad, Carol, Hayden, Connor, BriBri, and Zella. We cannot find words to express the loss of Phil. I know he was a great Dad and Grandaddy. He will be missed by so many, and he left behind wonderful and powerful memories, not to mention the legacy of a family that will carry on. We pray that you will each find peace and comfort in knowing he has left all this pain behind and he is now watching us all from heaven. God Bless You All during this time.With Love, Daddy(PaPa) and Mums(NiNi) Garden City Beach, SC

Grandmother and Brad..I am so very sorry for your loss..Mom and I always thought the world of Phil..he was such a kind and caring man..I hope you find comfort in all the lives that he touched and the differences he made.

Zella and Brad,

Phil and I were friends since the first time we met some fifteen years ago. We will miss him greatly. I only wish that we could have completed the Piedmont airplane tour that I had planned. He would have loved that as much as I would have. My condolences and heartfelt wishes for healing and loving memories.
