Mr. Bradley Lavone Anderson, age 52, was mercifully taken home by the Lord on Sunday, February 5, 2023 at Ogeechee Area Hospice Inpatient Facility in Statesboro.

Following graduation, he joined the US Navy where he became navy medic and continued as a medic in the Army National Guard. He later trained to become an EMT and then a paramedic.

Most recently he was employed with Amerimed Emergency Medical Services who was such a blessing to him throughout his battle with Leukemia. The degree of love, compassion and support given to him during the last seven months was overwhelmingly amazing.
