Earl Bradley Graham was born on 10/24/1931 to Noah and Iva Graham and is survived by his children David (Elizabeth) and Sandra (George) and grandchildren Jeremy, Andrew, Charity, Christine, Ron and Eric. He leaves behind eight great-grandchildren. He is also survived by his younger sisters Nora (James) Hart and Barbara (late husband Denver) Brewer as well as one niece and three nephews. He married Nira Gay on May 12 1951 and they enjoyed almost 70 years of marriage before Gay passed away February 2021 leaving "Bradley" with a broken heart. He worked at Standard Products for over 30 years being very involved in the UAW. Later when Standard closed he spent 10 years working proudly for the village of Oak Harbor mowing grass, planting and tending to flowers and being part of the Tree Commission and helping get Oak Harbor voted Tree City USA more than once. He was known and loved by many in the Village of Oak Harbor He and his wife lived a simple and intentionally dedicated life to one another. He left her love notes and doted on her in ways most will never have the privilege of knowing. He was happiest chasing her around flea markets or even the grocery store while she chased down something for one of her grandchildren or great-grandchildren. He was very honored to have one of them named after him, loved taking Daniella to Big Boy for lunch and the Dollar Store and loved hearing stories about the triplets. He was able to meet his great-great- grandchild on Fathers Day 2021. He was in awe of Joshua and his progress at his job and generally loved having the younger generation surround him. He pleaded, however, to go with his wife from the day she passed on and it is with somber hearts that his family can say they are joyed to know he is once again with the love of his life, leaving a legacy of love behind.
