Tuesday, Oct. 6, the end came after long years of suffering and suspense, surrounded by his loved ones at the home of his mother. It was known that he could not live long but that doesn’t relieve the sorrow when death does come and as the bright young life left the pure heart of Tom Braddy and the news became known there was sadness in a multitude of hearts. Tom was about 30 years old and had never been married. He was a son of Mrs. M.A. Braddy of Ypsilanti and had been living with her four years since his affliction set in. He had previously been living in Texas where he contracted the malady that brought his young life to an early close. His remains were interred Wednesday afternoon in the cemetery at Providence Church. To him death was merely the parting of the ways for he was already in sweet companionship with God, and the ending of his earthly life was but the lifting of the veil whereby he is now enabled to see God face to face. To the sorrowing relatives a host of friends extend deepest sympathy. This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/gafiles/ File size: 1.9 Kb
