Mr. Gradeon Milton Bly was born on September 12, 1933 in Port Arthur, TX. and departed from this life on November 13, 2017 at his home in Wilson, LA. A private ceremony will be held by his family with his final resting place in Memory Gardens at Nederland, TX. He was a retired accountant from Baker Hughes and Dresser Industries. He had deep spiritual beliefs. He was loved by many and gave that love back to many. Often quite funny with his dry humor jokes. He was “sweet man” most would say and an awesome father, grandfather and a friend to all. He will be greatly missed. He was preceded in death by his parents Maynard Gradeon Bly and Velma Irene Grubbs. Survivors include his children, Gayla Renee Bly, and Oran Milton Bly and his wife, Baby Ruth; sibling, Jo LeMaire; grandchildren, Joshua Bly, Travian Bly, Daulton Bly and Lance Gorayeb; and grandchildren Waylon, Karter and Hadley.
