Terry Bradley Lovett

Terry Bradley Lovett, born October 11, 1946, passed away peacefully on December 30, 2025, surrounded by her family. She was a devoted wife, loving mother, and cherished grandmother, whose life was rooted in love, kindness, and a deep commitment to those she held dear. Terry shared a beautiful and enduring marriage with her husband, Mike Lovett, to whom she was married for 59 years, having wed on August 27, 1966. Their partnership was a cornerstone of her life, and their love and devotion to one another were evident to all who knew them. She is survived by her husband, Mike, and their children: Michele Hawkins (and husband Will), Shannon Mills (and husband Michael), and Michael Lovett (and wife Lauren). She was preceded in death by her parents, Willie Thurman Bradley and Helen Ada Bradley; her beloved sister and best friend, Janet Kirkland; and Janet’s husband, Robert Kirkland. Terry’s greatest joy came from her family, especially her eleven grandchildren: Mae Caroline Pimentel, Emma Pimentel, Alyx Hawkins, Andrew Hawkins, Ashton Hawkins, Anna Hawkins, Ella Grace Mills, Luke Mills, Clay Mills, Mary Michael Lovett, and Hudson Lovett. Terry’s family and grandchildren were her life, and she found her greatest happiness in time spent loving and nurturing them. She loved seeing her family pursue their passions and took great joy in their achievements, always cheering them on and celebrating their successes. Terry treasured family vacations at the beach, where time slowed down and memories were made. Sundays were especially meaningful to her, as she loved opening her home for family dinners—gatherings filled with conversation, laughter, and togetherness. Her door and her heart were always open. Terry was selfless in the way she loved, always putting the needs of her family and others before her own. Whether offering a helping hand, a listening ear, or quiet guidance during difficult times, she could always be counted on. She gave freely of her time, energy, and love, and those around her knew they were never alone when Terry was by their side. Those who knew Terry will remember her for her warmth, generosity, and steady presence. Her Christian faith was an important part of her life and quietly guided the way she cared for others. She leaves behind a legacy of love, strong family bonds, and countless memories that will be treasured for generations. While her absence is deeply felt, her family rejoices in the promise of eternal life, knowing that Terry is now at peace in the presence of her Savior, hearing the words, “Well done, good and faithful servant.” The family will receive friends for a visitation at Lakeside Baptist Church on Friday, January 2, 2026 beginning at 10:00 AM, followed by a funeral service at 11:00 AM. She will be laid to rest in Pinelawn Gardens, in Columbiana, Alabama. Please sign online condolences at www.boltonfuneralhome.com.
