Mary Joyce Bradshaw passed peacefully at home with her family by her side on Thursday September 1, 2022. She is survived by her son Joseph Edward Legette; daughter Denise Ritchie; grandchildren Joseph Edward Legette III, Brittany Paige Dean, Katelyn Nicole Mitchum, and Zachary Austin Mitchum; and great-grandson Daniel Ray Ballard.
Some would say Mary was a bit of a “wild child”, we prefer to say that she lived life to the fullest and had a larger than life personality. She was a prankster – always quick with a joke and trying to catch her friends and family off guard.
She was an Elvis aficionado – she loved his music, his movies, and everything about him. Mary enjoyed playing cards, cracking jokes, riding horses, and sitting in her favorite chair while catching up on her daily soaps. Most of all, she was a loving mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother and she was deeply loved by all who knew her.
