With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Bep Thi Bradley, a woman whose elegance, and unwavering love touched the lives of everyone she met. Bep passed away peacefully on November 12, 2024, at the age of 76, surrounded by the love of her family. Born on September 21, 1948, in Vietnam, Bep was the beloved eldest daughter of Bay Thi Pham. However, she felt life truly began in 1968 when she met the love of her life, Gene Bradley. Together, they began a journey filled with adventure, love, and deep devotion. Their travels took them across the globe, creating memories in every corner of the world. Bep especially cherished their visits to a small village in Germany, a place that held a special place in her heart.
Eventually, Bep and Gene made their home in Easton, Pennsylvania, where their lives revolved around family gatherings filled with love and laughter. Their home was always a welcoming haven for loved ones. Later, they moved to Columbia, South Carolina, but their hearts remained rooted in the bonds of family, traveling often to Easton and Iowa to stay close to those they loved most. Bep’s greatest joy was her family, and she found her purpose in loving them with all her heart. She was a caring mother to Tony Le, a loving mother-in-law to Yen Do, a doting grandmother to Cindy Le and Phuong Le, and a proud great-grandmother to Raelynn Beattie. She cherished her role as a homemaker, creating a home filled with warmth and beauty, where traditions were honored and memories were made.
Bep had a deep love for Christmas, a season she celebrated with unmatched joy. For her, it wasn’t just about the decorations or gifts—it was about gathering her family, dressing in her finest outfits, and wearing her favorite jewelry, each piece a reflection of her vibrant spirit. Her love, kindness, and gentle strength will be remembered by all who knew her. She leaves behind a legacy of unconditional love, cherished traditions, and the example of a life lived with grace and purpose.
Bep is survived by her devoted family: her mother, her son and daughter-in-law, her grandchildren, and her great-granddaughter. She also leaves behind her dear siblings, Viet Le, Nam Le, Nga Le, Van Le, June Le, and Trieu Pham and a large extended family, including her nephew Hoang Le, who will carry her memory in their hearts forever. As we say goodbye, we take comfort in knowing she is reunited with her beloved Gene, traveling together once more in eternal peace. A celebration of Bep’s extraordinary life will be held soon, with details to come. In her honor, the family asks that you hold your loved ones close, celebrate the beauty of life, and carry forward her legacy of love.
