Dorothy Ann (James) Bradley

If I could have just one more day and wishes did come true,
I'd spend every glorious moment side by side with you.
Recalling all the years we shared and memories we made,
how grateful I would be to have just one more day.
Where the tears I've shed are not in vain and only fall in bliss.
So many things I'd let you know about the days you've missed.
I wouldn't have to make pretend you never went away.
How grateful I would be to have just one more day.
When that day came to a close and the sun began to set,
a million times I'd let you know I never will forget
the heart of gold you left behind when you entered Heaven's gate.
How grateful I would be to have just one more day.

We regret to inform you of the passing of Mrs. Dorothy Ann Bradley, 75, of Carthage, NC, on Sunday, January 11, 2026 at her residence.

Dorothy Ann Bradley was born on January 26, 1950, in Holly Hill, South Carolina, to the late Minnie Brown and Rutledge James, Sr.

Dorothy was a devoted Christian and a woman who valued education and lifelong learning. She pursued her studies diligently and earned her degree, carrying that knowledge with grace and purpose throughout her life. She later moved to New Your, where she began a dedicated career with AT&T, from which she eventually retired. Dorothy was also united in marriage to Gary Bradley; though the marriage later ended in divorce, it was during this union that she was blessed with her beloved daughter.

She was a loving and devoted mother to her daughter, Tashina Bradley, and took immense pride in her role as a grandmother to Te'asya Bradley (Andrew Robinson), Markius Bradley, and Kiaya Bradley. Her legacy continued through her three great-grandchildren, Genesis Robinson, Elise Robinson, and Ezekiel Robinson, all of whom brought her deep happiness and fulfillment. 

Dorothy lived a life rooted in faith, love, and service. Having fulfilled her purpose on earth, she peacefully transitioned to her eternal rest on Sunday, January 11, 2026. 

She was preceded in death by her parents, Minnie Brown and Rutledge James Sr. 

Thos who remain to cherish her precious memory include her beloved daugher, Tashina Bradley; her grandchildren, Te'asya Bradley (Andrew Robinson), Markius Bradley, and Kiaya Bradley; her great-grandchildren, Genesis Robinson, Elise Robinson, and Ezekiel Robinson; her siblings, Dorothy Mae James, and Lillie James; along with a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and dear friends who will forever hold her in their hearts.
