Dear Family of William D. Bradley Jr., Monday, May 23rd
I received a call this morning from a friend who works at Fresenius Kabi Inc. who informed me of William's passing.
Also, I worked at Fresenius and have since retired.
I am heartbroken that I didn't know sooner so that I could of at least express my condolences to you in person this past Friday.
To William's Family I say Thank you for sharing him with us, truly a Dear person.
May you all hold on tightly to the promise recorded at Revelation 21:4 - when tears of sorrow and of pain will be wiped away and replaced with tears of pure joy!
William has left a Beautiful Legacy- taking care of His Loved Ones was his priority, and showing kindness to your fellowman!
William had the love and respect from so many at Fresenius. May last conversation was his last day at Fresenius as he was going to be having surgery, that was about 3 and 1/2 years ago. We were sorry he was not able to return back to Fresenius. Since I did not have any contact information on William I could not reach out to check on his progress.
Everyday at work I would speak to William, what a kind and caring man. When I first met him I felt rather intimidated by his tall, large and in charge presence. LOL! I found "Bill" to be a gentle Giant. He was quite the comedian.
My office was right next to the elevator on the second floor so he would as so many other employees had to walk past my office on the way to the cafeteria/lunchroom. So I would see William at least three times a day with his khaki green work attire and at the end of the day his collection of Kangol hats and matching sweatsuit or short sets dressed right and representing! He wore every color named in the 64 count Crayola Crayon Box!
One day all I could see was this flash of green come around the corner headed towards my office it's William in his bright green sweatsuit and Kangol hat, I got up from my chair and opened the door to say Hey Jolly Green Giant!
William and I burst out with laughter! I said I got you today, but you are sharp! What a sharp dresser as he drove off in his black Mercedes.
He loved a large variety of colors that was the reflection of the man he was on the inside with a Beautiful, Bright and Lovable Personality! He has and will continued to be missed. He made an everlasting impression in my life and I'm so honored that I had the privilege of meeting him.
I send my concern and prayers for your well-being. Please take care and be safe.
Sincerely,
Beverly Scales
