Bradford Bailey, a beloved member of the Atwater community, passed away on February 22, 2026, at Cleveland Metro Hospital. Born on May 17, 1958, in Alliance, Ohio, Bradford lived a life characterized by his commitment to family, enjoyment of the outdoors, and passion for motorcycles.

A proud alumnus of Alliance High School, Bradford harnessed his work ethic and skill throughout his career, ultimately retiring from Custom Poly Bag. His dedication to his profession was mirrored by his deep love for his family and friends.

Bradford is survived by his son Corey (Angela) Bailey and cherished grandchildren Alexander (Carmen Roller) Bailey, Abigail Bailey, and Ethan Bailey. He also entered into the joyous role of great-grandfather to Alexander Asher Bailey. His siblings — Rosann David Berlin, Marcia McCabe, Steven (Rachel) Bailey, and Angela (Mark) Currier — along with his aunt Carol Read, several nieces, nephews, and cousins, remember him fondly.

He was predeceased by his parents, George and Joanne (Kannal) Roberts, his son Bradford Allen Bailey, his brother Barry Bailey, and his grandparents, Roy and Mammie Kannal.

Bradford’s interests extended beyond his family; he belonged to various motorcycle clubs, enjoyed riding motorcycles, fishing, and spending quality time outdoors. These hobbies brought him joy and allowed him to connect with friends who shared similar passions.
