Nola Brown Bradley, 73

Nola Brown Bradley of Kalispell, formally Asheville, N.C., passed away on October 4, 2010 of natural causes and is now home with the Lord. Nola was born on Jan. 30, 1937, in Spring Creek, N.C., to Mr. and Mrs. Dewey Z. Brown, now deceased. She was a very devoted mother of three children. Mom was our hero; she was always encouraging us to do more, learn more and give openly to God and community. Mom loved to garden, travel, camp and hike, and shared her love for Jesus Christ. Mom's love extended to all those around her. She sacrificed many years of her life, giving up all she had to raise her children with precious love and devotion. She was a beautiful, perfect example of what a true, loving mother is in all she did. The family of Nola will plan a celebration of her life at a later date in North Carolina. In lieu of flowers, the family requests any memorial may be made to the Nola Bradley Memorial Fund, made payable to Zack Bradley, at 141 Splendid View Drive, Kalispell, MT, to assist the family with funeral expenses.
