William Bradford II, of Burleson, Texas, passed away on December 10, 2025 at the age of 73.

He was born on October 11, 1952 to William Richard Bradford and Mary Louise Cotton.

William, affectionately known as "Brother Bill", had a successful career at Bechtel and Huitt-Zollars, where he worked until his retirement in 2015. In addition to his day job, Bill spent years marketing the Johnny Light, a toilet bowl light he co-invented and was passionate about. He was also a proud Marine who served his country for a short time with honor.

In his free time, Bill enjoyed watching the Dodgers and Cowboys play. He was a devoted fan who loved to make bets with his brother, Michael Bradford, that the Dodgers would beat the Diamondbacks.

Bill leaves behind his beloved wife, Barbara Bradford, children, Kristyn Bradford and Katelyn Perez, step-daughters, Carrie Davis and Connie (Huard) Harral, and over 10 adoring grandchildren.

He is preceded in death by his parents, William Bradford and Mary Cotton, brothers, Michael Bradford and Shawn Vivian, sister, Debbie Laine, and daughter, Ricki Lynn Bradford.

He will be remembered for his sense of humor, love of sports, and unwavering work ethic.

May he rest in peace, finally pain free. He will be deeply missed.
