You taught me what to expect in relationships. You taught me about real friendships. You finally asked to marry me in December 2022. However, I had waited too long. I'll miss you, my love. I finally figured out the Braddy- Hilson connection/relations from mid to late 1800s, but it's a little late to tell you. I am sorry, my love. RIP

Tommie was a good man will be missed

Sending condolences from Ronnie Braddy's family. Tommie was our closest neighbor growing up in Warthen,Ga. His mother's house was a place of warmth,comfort and sharing. It was always exciting to see Tommie come home from the Army. My late brother-Coney Braddy III and Tommie was especially close. Also Tommie was a Army Recruiting Legend and will be truly missed. Take your rest Soldier.
