Ruth Marie Bradley

Ruth Marie Bradley passed away on December 4, 2025. Born in Lanagan, Mo on October 1, 1933, she was the daughter of Buck Bonebrake and Mildred Marie (Longmore) Bonebrake.

Ruth was preceded in death by her loving husband of 72 years, Billy Brown Bradley, her parents, and brothers Bob Bonebrake and Bill Bonebrake.

Ruth is survived by her daughter Brenda Bradley Sloan and husband David of Rogers, AR, son Ron Bradley and wife Cheryl of Orange, TX, son Randall Bradley and wife Rebeca of Troup, TX and son John Bradley of Seabrook, TX.

Ruth loved the Lord with all her heart and she committed her life to Jesus Christ as a young girl.

Ruth was very devoted to her family. She claimed the scripture “But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” Joshua 24:15b and she was a prayer warrior- continually praying for her family. She led Bible studies in her home and was faithful to her church.

Ruth loved gardening and working in her yard, and was an excellent cook. She was the best baker – her family will never forget Grandma Ruth’s pies!

Ruth was dearly loved and will be missed by family and friends. Her family and church will honor her with a celebration of her life on December 20, 2025 at 11:00 AM, with visitation to begin at 10:00 AM at the First Church of the Nazarene, 3810 MLK Jr Dr, Orange, TX.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made to First Church of the Nazarene at 3810 MLK Jr Dr, Orange, Texas.

The family is very thankful for the loving care that was given to Mom by Golden Years Assisted Living and Heart to Heart Hospice.
