Bradley Craig "Shorty" London

Bradley Craig "Shorty" London passed away on February 26, 2025, in Cottonwood Shores, TX. He was born on January 25, 1968, in Uvalde, Tx to Carolyn Greenwood and Hollis London.

Craig graduated from Mathis High School in 1986 before attending Bee County College, where he earned a degree in auto mechanics. Though skilled in his trade, his true passion lay on the open road. As a bull hauler for most of his adult life, Craig traveled across the United States, embracing the freedom and adventure that came with hauling cattle.

In his earlier years, Craig enjoyed working cattle and team roping—activities that reflected his deep connection to ranch life. Later in life, he found peace at the ranch during hunting season, camping alone in a one-man tent for at least a week at a time. There was no place he would rather be than out in nature. Hunting and fishing were among his favorite pastimes, along with working on wood projects that brought him both peace and fulfillment. 

Craig was known for an outgoing personality. He had an incredible ability to bring joy to any gathering, ensuring there was never a dull moment. Whether telling jokes or simply clowning around, his presence was a source of laughter and happiness for those around him.

Craig is survived by his mother, Carolyn Greenwood; stepfather, Lamar Greenwood; sister, Jody Greenwood; brother, Shane London; and two nieces, Makenzie Greenwood-Moore and Lindsey London. He is preceded in death by his father, Hollis London; paternal grandparents, Red and Ethel London; maternal grandparents, Joe and Nell Tennill; and step-grandparents, Milton and Frances Mary Greenwood.

He lived a life filled with energy and enthusiasm, leaving a lasting impression on those who had the pleasure of knowing him. May his memory live on and bring comfort to those whose lives he touched.

Would like to give a special thanks to Rodney Redding. We appreciate everything you did for Craig over the passed 5 yrs.
