Burnon Thomas BRADLEY

BRADLEY, Burnon (Bunny) - Suddenly taken from us on Friday Dec.14, 2007, the late Burnon Thomas James Bradley, 62 years, of Birmingham, England and recently of Campbellford Ontario, Canada. Loving son of Grace & Walter Cook, life partner of Karen Sinclair of Campbellford, father of Nicola Jackson of Oshawa, grandfather to Jake, Kate and Hailey. After graduating with honours from Aston University, U.K. in 1965 as an Electrical/Mechanical Engineer, Burnon was recruited by O & W Electronics of Toronto as Engineering Manager for the construction of electrical aircraft panels (1975-1987). After O & W, he worked as Prototype Production Manager for Ross Video Equipment in Iroquois, Ontario. After leaving Ross in '92 he began his career in graphic arts while General Manager for Corporate Signs of Richmond Hill. In '95 Burnon moved to Custom Signs in Concord, and finally, in '98 he started his own company Sign Design and Manufacturing in the beaches area of Toronto. You can still see his signs all over the city. Bunny retired in 2002 travelling slowly by Jeep to Atenas, Costa Rica where he resided until his return to Canada last year. He was a computer whiz, a talented graphic artist, a certified divemaster, former rock climber/mountaineer, and private pilot who for years owned his own plane. He had great technical expertise, and possessed a singular, dry, English wit. Heartfelt thanks to the paramedics and emergency room nurses, to Drs. Parson-Sheldrake and Bartlett of C'Ford Memorial and Dr. Bishop and nursing staff of the Intensive Care Unit at Peterborough General for the excellent care they gave Burnon - also to Andrea, Sue, Gail & Bob. Cremation was Monday, December 17, 2007. Memorial will take place at a later date. Online condolences can be sent to burnon.bradley@yahoo.com. Now take back the soul of Burnon Thomas Bradley that was shared with us. He brought us joy, we loved him well. 10937270
