Ronald Alan Johnson Bradford, 35, beloved Son, Brother, Grandson, and Nephew, was called to his eternal resting place on May 12, 2026. He entered this world on February 6, 1991 in Salisbury, MD. He is a son of Leah (Tommy) Vickers and Bruce (Christine) Bradford.

Ronnie enjoyed his video games, writing music, drawing, his cat Kiki, his family and friends and we can't forget Outer Space and Aliens. Ronnie's family is left with many memorable moments, but a few of the funniest were-the time Ronnie threw his brother-in-law over his shoulder and tucked him into bed; he and his siblings going to bat for each other (literally); his nephew added thousands of cows to his Minecraft game without him knowing; putting his sisters in a box or on a crib mattress and push them down the steps; playing baseball in the house and if they broke things, they would glue them back together; teaching his siblings to jump off the roof into the pool; making fun of his sisters; waking up to Raggedy Anne standing over top of him; trips to his favorite Sushi restaurant; camping with family at Roaring Point; and hanging out with the Grove Street gang even when they weren't allowed. He had an appreciation for the simple things in life like the color black, honeysuckle and fireflies.Ronnie was extremely proud of his sobriety, a battle he overcame after many years of hard work and how hard he fought to change his life. He loved his job in sales at Nissan of Sumter in SC, where he had many many friends and associates. Needless to say, Ronnie will be remembered for being fearless, determined, and adventurous, but most importantly, someone who loved and appreciated family with all of his heart.

He is survived by sister Lissa (William) Wilson; sister Becka Bradford; brother Christopher (Samantha) Bradford; sister Renee (Matthew) Smith; sister Jessica (Denny) Murray, sister Ashley (Rob) Ford, sister Payton Vickers; sister Makayla Vickers; brother Maverick Vickers, sister Allyna Vickers, brother Kayden Vickers. Grandmother Joan Jones; Grandmother Agnes Bradford; several Aunts and uncles, 17 Nieces and Nephews. He was preceded in death by his Grandparents Thomas and Juanita Kozlowski; Grandfather Norman Bradford; and Grandfather Robert Jones, along with his two uncles and birth father.

A visitation for family and friends will be held on Friday, May 22, 2026, from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00, followed by a funeral service, which begins at 2:00, at Short Funeral Home in Delmar.
