Ruth E

Bradley

Ruth Bradley of Toledo lived a very full life. Married April 12, 1949, Ruth and her husband, John, raised two sons together.  Their most cherished time together was after John's retirement when they moved to their lake house on Hardwood Lake, near Prescott, Michigan.   For many years, Ruth volunteered at the West Branch Library book nook raising funds for various projects.  She also enjoyed gardening around her home and traveling with friends.  After John's death in 1994, she remained at her lake house until 2019 when she decided to move back to Toledo to be closer to her family. The family would like to thank the staff at West Park Place, Toledo, where she resided for the last 3 years, and the staff at Hospice of Northwest Ohio for her care.

Ruth was preceded in death by her parents, Karl and Elsie Recknagel, and her husband, John R. Bradley. She is survived by her sons Jim (Ellen) Bradley and Bob (Betsy) Bradley; her grandchildren, Karl (Elizabeth) Bradley, Sarah (Kevin Brady) Bradley, Eric (Kate) Bradley, Bryan (Shelly Weisman) Bradley, and Kevin Bradley; six great-grandchildren, Leeda Bradley, Max Bradley, Genna Bradley, Theo Bradley, Kellen Brady, Johnson Bradley.
