Robert Eugene Bradford left his earthly body on July 28, 2017, at the ripe old age of 86. His body finally gave up on him after a lifetime of loving babies and chasing potential "sweet things." He was a beloved daddy, the best grandpa, and he loved his country and served in the U.S. Navy until he retired. He spent his lifetime trying to fill the lives of his loved ones with love and laughter. If anyone needed a daddy or grandpa he was your man. His life was dedicated to "his kids". It didn't matter what your nationality, race or lifestyle was, if you needed his love he gave it generously. His hobbies included doting on "his kids", fishing, hunting, singing old country tunes and waving at his neighbors as they drove past and honked. His family would like to thank Dr. Tippin for insuring he had a good breakfast and the much needed energy to flirt with his girls and tell a good tale. As he left this world he stated that his precious daughter Debbie; his dearest brother Cecil and adopted grandbaby Michelle were there to accompany him on the final leg of his travels.
Robert is survived by a hoard of children and a boat load of beloved grandbabies and great grands. If you called him daddy or grandpa, he considered you his as well. He is also survived by his countless girl friends; several finances and more sweet things we could count at Chambers Memorial Hospital and Dardanelle Nursing and Rehab Center. A celebration of his life will be held at 2:00 P.M., Friday, August 4, 2017 at the Mt. George Church of Christ with Bro. Michael Ellis and Bro. Bruce Swanson officiating.
Burial will be in Mt. George Cemetery. Visitation will be held Thursday, 6:00 P.M. to 8:00 P.M. at Cornwell Chapel in Dardanelle. Pallbearers will be Matt Damon, Clay Damon, Josh Thomas, Jonathan Ellis, Chester Shelton, Ritchey Shannon. Honorary Pallbearers will be Lora Beasley, Robert Jones, Seth Jones, O.J. Williams, Dee Bly, Jimmy Dean Jones, George Delonte, Bobby Lee Bradford. In lieu of flowers, please thank a staff member of Chambers Memorial Hospital or Dardanelle Nursing and Rehab Center.

(Yell County Record Newspaper, Danville, Arkansas, pub. Jun 08, 2011) Fatal Accident In Boy's Own Yard -- While Riding ATV-- A fifteen year old child died on Saturday, June 4th, near his parents home in Wildcat Hollow, in a fourwheeler accident. According to Yell County Sheriff Deputy Rick Shaddon, investigating officer, Zachary Keith Bragg was seen five to ten minutes earlier by his father's fiance, Jamie Steele, who said that the boy had gone riding on the family's Honda 4-wheeler, and when she went looking for him she found him under the four wheeler, partially in the family's driveway and partially in a ditch. Shaddon said that Steele pulled the vehicle off of the boy and called 911 and the boy's father, Paul Bragg. Officers noted on the report that the vehicle was still turned on and in forward gear, and that the boy had apparently been attempting to negotiate the ditch area when the accident occurred. Other personnel working the accident included Det. Lt. Scott Moore, and Yell County EMS personnel Jim Hodges and Jonathon Weatherall. Shaddon reported that the EMS personnel told him that the child had died in the accident.
