Loyd "Brad" Bradford, 83, passed away on February 16, 2025, in Kent, Washington. 

 

Born on June 30, 1941, in Webster County, Missouri, Brad dedicated his life to craftsmanship and service. He proudly served as a Sergeant in the United States Air Force before embarking on a distinguished career as a tool and die maker for McDonnell Douglas and later Boeing. His precision and skill left a lasting impact and was a proud member of his machinist union.  

 

Brad was a craftsman through and through. He had an unmatched ability to build anything from the ground up and possessed every tool imaginable. Whether repairing something broken or creating something new, he took great pride in his work. His love for maintaining his yard was evident—he treated it like a park, ensuring it was always pristine and welcoming.  

 

He is survived by his beloved wife, Yvonne Bradford; daughter and son-in-law, Rona and Paul Brunson; son and daughter-in-law, Brian Cole and Re Knack; grandchildren Kaleb Brunson, Kiera Brunson, and Cadence Cole; and niece Betty Bradford.
