TONY BRADFORD RIP - 20/03/2024
TONY BRADFORD RIP
It is with great sadness that we have to report the passing of Tony Bradford on Wednesday 20th March. Tony was 89 years of age. One of the last few gentlemen of the sport. No one had a bad word to say about Tony and was well respected by his fellow players.
Tony played Aunt Sally for many years at various clubs/pubs, including Kings Head at Great Milton and New Club Wheatley where he finished playing. Tony played for many years for The Kings Head in the indoor league at Blackbird Leys Social club where he picked up many trophies.
In 2017 Tony & his son Rob played in the final of the Parent & Child where Tony suffered a heart attack during the second leg. However he recovered well and went on to play for a few more times.
Time and date of the funeral will be announced when known.
