Scott L Bradley

BRISTOL — Scott Lee Bradley, 53,  of Bristol, passed away unexpectedly Friday, April 20, 2018, at his home.

He was born Sept. 27, 1964, in Elkhart, to Larry and Sharon Lea (Kunkel) Richmond.

He married his soulmate Tiffany L. Kantz on Oct. 21, 2005, in Centreville, Michigan.

Tiffany survives, as well as five children, Amy Bradley, Megan Bradley, Eric Clark, Brooke (Christian) Metzger and Morgan Bayless; two grandchildren, Aiden and Easton; sister Cindy (Joseph) Thomas; parents Larry and Sharon Lea Richmond; three nephews, Joseph Thomas Jr., Luke Thomas and Mason Clark; and two nieces, Morgan Thomas and Hannah Thomas; and his four faithful furbaby German shepherds, Max, Serge, Zenzi and Toska.

His grandparents Norma Lea and Robert Kunkel preceded Scott in death.

Scott was a 1983 graduate of White Pigeon High School and received his B. S. from Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo.

Scott loved all sports, especially Notre Dame football and the lady Irish basketball team.

He could be found most days, working in his yard, playing with his dogs or when he had a chance, fishing.

Scott loved going to Disney and all things Mickey Mouse.

He was a volunteer fireman and EMT with the Bristol Fire Department for many years.

Scott was a big man in life, but had the gentle, giving heart of a servant, willing to help anyone in need, at any time.

Always thinking of others, Scott donated his corneas so someone else may have the chance to see.

He will be missed by all who loved him.

A gathering of family and friends will be from 5-7 p.m. Friday, April 27, at Billings Funeral Home, 812 Baldwin St.

Per his wishes, cremation was chosen.

The family kindly requests no flowers.

Memorials may be given to either Cancer Resources for Elkhart County or American Heart Association.
