Bradford Larry Barnes, 85, of Shirley was born on September 18, 1930 in Bellingham, Washington to the late Grant and Ruth (Giffin) Barnes and passed from this life on May 29, 2016 in Clinton. He was a paratrooper with the 82nd Airborne, an engineer with the Timex Corporation and owned his own business for many years. He was known for his smile and kind deeds toward others.
