Bradley John “Baldy” Anderson, beloved son, brother, uncle, and friend, passed away on May 26, 2023, leaving behind a legacy of kindness, loyalty, and a passion for life. Born September 26, 1959, to John “Jack” Anderson and Barbara “Dianne” Gefroh Anderson, Bradley’s journey was marked by his unwavering dedication to helping others, his love for snowmobiles, motorcycles, and his exceptional skills in working on vehicles. Bradley shared a close bond with his sister, Sherry Anderson and her son Corey, whose friendships meant the world to him. Tragically, he lost his brother, Kevin Anderson, and father Jack Anderson, before him, losses that undoubtedly impacted him deeply. Despite life’s challenges, Bradley faced them with strength and remained true to his compassionate nature. With an infectious sense of humor, Bradley was known for his knack for storytelling, particularly his collection of dirty jokes that could lighten any room. His laughter was contagious, and he had a unique way of brightening people’s spirits. Throughout his life, Bradley embraced his passion for automotive work, spending countless hours pursuing these interests and finding joy in every moment. Bradley’s kindness and willingness to lend a hand endeared him to those around him. He selflessly offered his help to anyone in need, reflecting his genuine care for others. His friends recognized his unwavering loyalty and found solace in his thoughtful gestures. Bradley touched the lives of many, leaving behind memories that will be cherished by his lifelong friends. As a father to his son, born on February 3, 1989, with Diane Ness, Bradley had a deep love for his child. Despite not entering into marriage, he considered Diane the love of his life that got away. Bradley was known for his strong will and stubbornness, often avoiding visits to the doctor. However, his warm heart and genuine nature endeared him to those who knew him best. His journey was not without its share of challenges and mistakes, but through it all, Bradley remained a beacon of goodness and generosity. Bradley John Anderson will be greatly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him. His legacy of kindness, loyalty, and his ability to bring joy to those around him will live on in the hearts and memories of his family and friends. In honoring his life, let us remember the valuable lessons he taught us about compassion, resilience, and the importance of embracing life’s simple pleasures. He is survived by his son, Timothy Ness; mother, Dianne Anderson; sister, Sherry Anderson; and nephew Corey Anderson; his cousins, Cyndi Pearson, Brenda Johnson, Julie Hietala, Wade Anderson, Carla Nonnenberg; and his aunt Connie Anderson. Memorial Services will be 4:00 p.m. on Friday, June 2, 2023 in Amundson Funeral Home, Grand Forks with visitation one hour prior to the service in the funeral home. Following the service there will be a celebration of Bradley’s life at the Long Haul Saloon. All are welcome to attend.
