Lindall Ray Bradford

Lindall Ray Bradford, a cherished father, grandfather, brother, and friend, passed away peacefully in his hometown of Rector, Arkansas, on September 6, 2025, at the age of 76. Born on March 12, 1949, to the late Lewis and Mary (Tanner) Bradford, Lindall lived a life marked by passion, dedication, and warmth.

Growing up in the close-knit town of Rector, Lindall was a person who valued family and tradition. His devotion to his daughters, Tiffany Lidisky and her husband Lex, of Rector, Arkansas, and Angie Letvinchuck and her husband William, of Watertown, Wisconsin, was unwavering. He was a beacon of wisdom and love for his grandchildren, Brayden Kopiness, Emily Kopiness, Hannah Lidisky, and Hailey Lidisky, who will carry his legacy forward with fond memories of their adored “Grandpa”.

Lindall is survived by his sister, Janey Jetton, and her husband Michael. Their bond was not just one of siblings but also of deep friendship. He leaves behind a host of relatives and friends whose lives he touched with his kindheartedness and jovial spirit.

A loyal and hardworking employee, Lindall dedicated many years of service to Monroe, from which he eventually retired. His colleagues knew him as a man of integrity and good humor, always ready to lend a helping hand or share a laugh. His work ethic and camaraderie were pillars of the workplace.

Beyond his professional life, Lindall was a man of the outdoors. His love for horses was known to all, and he eagerly anticipated the annual Trail Ride in Eminence, Missouri, an event that brought him great joy and sense of freedom. Duck hunting and fishing were among his favorite pastimes with his friends providing them not only with relaxation but also with countless stories to share with anyone willing to listen.

Lindall Ray Bradford’s journey through life was a testament to the simple joys that make a rich and fulfilling existence. His laughter, his wisdom, and his unwavering support for those he loved will be remembered by all who had the privilege to know him. As we bid farewell to this remarkable man, we take solace in the knowledge that his spirit will live on in the hearts and memories of his family and friends. Lindall’s life was a true embodiment of love and joy, and he will be profoundly missed.

Visitation was held on Wednesday, September 10, 2025 from 12 until 1 p.m. at the Irby Funeral Home in Rector with service following at 1 p.m. Interment was at the Mitchell Cemetery in Greenway.
