GLENDA ELAINE "BUNI" BRADFORD
1952 - 2017
Obituary
Glenda Elaine "Buni" Bradford
was born Nov. 24, 1952, to the union of Roland Peter Bradford and
Hattie Mae Eubanks. She grew up in Arkansas City, where she attended
public school in Cowley County, and later graduated in 1981. She was
married to Claude Lolar Jr. in 1969. This union was blessed with four
children. Later, she had a long standing relationship with Booker T.
Hollis, which brought forth her youngest blessing, Tiara.
Glenda worked numerous jobs and
continued to learn and love life. She enjoyed singing, listening to
music and spending time with her family. She had a devoted love for
animals, especially cats. She enjoyed seeing her grandkids, cooking
and helping anyone she could.
She was a strong woman of faith, great
mother, and the true definition of a survivor. She knew how to take a
bad situation and make it funny, as she loved to laugh and make other
people laugh. She will be missed dearly.
Glenda leaves, to cherish her memory,
her mother Hattie Mae Burgin; her brother Ernest John Bradford; her
children Marcus Lolar and Lisa Lolar, both of Ponca City, Oklahoma,
Kesha Grace and husband Gimmill Grace of Ponca City, Oklahoma;
Shaunta Lolar of Ponca City, Oklahoma and Tiara Hollis of Wichita; as
well as her grandchildren, Jayden, Justice, Mercedes, Marcellus,
Malessa, Nicolas, Maleena, Gimmill, Jamaica, Jakarrah, Dajunique,
Aaron, Jacob, Bobby, Azaia; and one great-granddaughter, Jai'Lynn.
Glenda also had many cousins and friends who loved her dearly. She
was preceded in death by her father, Roland Bradford; and one
grandson, Juwan Lolar.
