Regina Kay McSpadden, 53, of Bradford, went to be home with her Lord and Savior on June 8, 2025, surrounded by the love of her family. Born on June 21,1971 in Searcy to Richard and Judy Gray.
Regina brought light and joy into the lives of everyone who knew her. She married the love of her life, Michael Don McSpadden, on March 24, 2023. They spent their time singing, camping, riding motorcycles, and worshipping the Lord together at Bradford Baptist Church.
She is survived by her husband, Michael D. McSpadden of Bradford; her mother, Judy Gray of Judsonia; her brother, Richie Gray (Divella) of Dardanelle; her sister, Carol Measel (Matt) of Windsor, Colorado; her children, Kelsey Hepp (Spencer) of Cabot, Kay Lynn Brock (Damon) of Bradford, Bethany Blewett (Tommy) of Green Forest, and Michael C. McSpadden of Bradford; her grandchildren: Abby Blewett, Thomas Blewett, Trenton Blewett, Ashlyn Blewett, Anna Blewett, Maxwell Bennett, Greyson Hepp, Michael "Maxton" McSpadden, Eleanor Bennett, Sawyer Brock, Alice Brock, and Anderson Hepp; and many more nieces, nephews, family, and friends.
She was preceded in death by her father, Richard Larry Gray; and her grandparents, Bob and Edna Gray, and Bill and Wilma Gaylor. She is now reunited with them in the presence of the Lord.
Regina dedicated most of her life to teaching at Bradford and Searcy High Schools. Her impact extended far beyond the classroom – her students remember her for her kindness and unwavering encouragement.
Regina was a gifted musician who shared her love of music through playing piano at Bradford Baptist Church and singing with 'Joyful Noise'. Her faith, voice, and warmth left an incredible mark on all who heard her. More than anything, Regina loved her family fiercely and unconditionally. Her children and grandchildren were the joy of her heart, and she poured her love and prayers into each of their lives.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to Bradford Baptist Church.
Services will be held at the Bradford Baptist Church, visitation will be on Thursday, June 12, 2025, from 6:00pm-8:00pm. The Funeral Service will be conducted Friday, June 13 beginning at 10:00am. Interment will immediately follow at Coffeyville Cemetery, Bradford.
