He worked for Pima County Facilities Management for the past six years, and owned his own remodeling business before that. He is survived by his wife of 24 years, Alice Marie; daughter and son-in-law, Kimberly Erin and Charles Bryan Tower; grandchildren, Trevor Layne and Audrey Erin Tower; siblings, Robert, Carol and Cristel Jennings.

Cipriano Parra Gamboa

Cipriano Parra Gamboa In Memory of our beloved Son, Brother, Husband, Uncle, Cousin and Friend It's been a year without you Cip, somehow our lives go on without you; But nothing is the same; we have to hide our heartache when someone speaks your name; Sad are the hearts that love you, silent the tears that fall; Living our lives without you is the hardest part of all. You did so many things for us, your heart was kind and true; And when we needed someone, we could always count on you. The special years will not return, when we were here together; But with love within our hearts, you walk with us forever. ... Author, Sylvia Vega. The family of Cip Gamboa wish to share this remembrance with those of you who have worked, played, laughed and held him in your hearts while he was with us. We truly believe our beloved Cipriano is resting in peace and the twinkle of his eyes are smiling down upon us.

Gilbert Francis Bradley

Gilbert Francis Bradley passed away peacefully on Monday, April 11, 2011, at La Rosa Nursing Facility in Tucson, Arizona. Known as both "Gil" and "Brad," he worked for Arizona's Valley National Bank for more than 45 years, retiring as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board in October, 1982, and serving as a board member for another three years. Born on May 17, 1920, in Miami, Arizona, he started work for the Valley Bank in 1937 as a bookkeeper in the Miami Branch. On June 21, 1941, he married Marion Zelda Bebb at St. John's Episcopal Church in Globe, Arizona. During, , he served in the, Air Corps and became a pilot. On February 25, 1944, Brad and his crew flying a mission in the Sophisticated Lady were shot down over Yugoslavia, in the territory of Marshall Tito's Partisans. The Partisans guided them to a rescue air strip, traveling over mountain tops, through dense forests and around German camps. On April 3rd, they were evacuated. Brad and his crew were awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross for this mission. Their story appeared as a comic strip in The American Air Forces magazine, misidentifying their plane as the Pistol Packin' Mama, the plane they had regularly flown until it was shot down manned by another crew. Years later, Brad and Marion wrote up the story for The Journal of Arizona History, Winter, 1995. On leaving the service in 1945, Brad returned to the Valley Bank in Globe as Assistant Bank Manager. From there he, in his own words, worked "through all phases of banking." He was based in Tucson for 16 years, first as the manager of the downtown branch and then executive vice-president of the Southern Region. Tucson honored him as Man of the Year in 1963. He left Tucson for Phoenix in 1973 to become President of the Valley National Bank. In 1978 he was appointed to the Federal Advisory Council of the Federal Reserve System, and in 1979 he was named one of the top three chief executive officers in American banking by Financial World magazine. He retired fully in 1985. After leaving the bank, he and Marion enjoyed an active retirement in Phoenix, Arizona and La Jolla, California. Since 2001, they have lived in Tucson at Santa Catalina Villas and La Rosa.

Hilda Anderson Kendrick

KENDRICK, Hilda Anderson, 93, passed away peacefully April 7, 2011. Born in Sour Lake, TX, in 1917, Hilda attended Texas Women's Univ. and later taught business in East Texas high schools, at which time she met her future husband, Wallace, who commanded a CCC camp. They were married in December 1940. In 1941, Hilda embarked on a 30+-year career as an Army wife, supporting her husband through three wars and many military assignments and caring for her family during his absences. She served as a volunteer for military charities, as well as Friends of the El Paso Library. An avid mystery fan, Hilda also enjoyed gardening, cooking and her many friends. Hilda and Wallace retired to El Paso, TX, where they were active in military and civic groups and cherished their friendships. Hilda moved to Tucson, AZ, in 1998 after Wallace's death. In her latter years, Hilda met the challenges of increasing sensory deprivation and afflictions with a grace and dignity that inspired all who knew her. Hilda was preceded in death by her husband, Col. Wallace M. Kendrick (Ret.); her son, Wallace M. Kendrick, Jr. "Mac"; her parents and her brother, George Anderson. She is survived by daughter, Karolyn and her life partner, Peter Schmidt, in Tucson; son, George (Susan) in South Dakota; daughter-in-law, Patricia in California and five grandchildren, of whom she was very proud: Katherine Jennifer, Christopher McKee, Jonathan Troy, Elizabeth Mariah and Alexander McKee Kendrick. Graveside Services will be held at Fort Bliss National Cemetery in El Paso on Monday, April 18, 2011 at 10:00 a.m., where Hilda will be buried beside her beloved husband.

In Loving Memory of ANTHONY SIREKIS October 12, 1980-April 16,

In Loving Memory of ANTHONY SIREKIS October 12, 1980-April 16, 2010 You went to be with God one year ago today, Why did you leave and choose to go away. My heart is broken, it left with you that day, Oh how I wish you decided to stay. These words can’t explain all I have to say, But I know you can hear me when I kneel and pray. So stay with me my son, hold your hand in mine, And know your love and spirit, was left behind. With all our love, Dad and Momma My brother, my heart is still broken from the events one year ago. Never did I imagine I’d have to survive this. My pain and sadness lingers on every day, even though I know you’re in heaven. I wish you could have stayed with me and our family. You are still loved so much. I will never forget you and all the great times we had. You are always going to be a part of my life. I will find peace one day and I know you are at rest now. I know you are by my side watching over me and my children. I honor your memory with love until you meet me at the gates of heaven. You are my heart and soul... Love Forever, Your Sister, Kim Lively Uncle TJ, you have touched our lives so much through the years. All the things you missed this year, we know you’ve seen from heaven. We will continue to talk about you every day, listen to your favorite song and smile because we know you loved us with all your heart. Watch over us and help guide us in the right direction and just know you are loved by us and always will be a big part of our lives forever...

"Words mean something" she often said. As an avid reader she took this to heart asking "Where did that word come from and what does it mean." We love you. Your spirit is with us and you will always be remembered. God bless you and God bless America. Memorial Service will be private.
