It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Kay Poeppelman on October 12, 2025

It is with great sadness that we share the passing of Kay Poeppelman. Kay began serving at the Bradford Public Library in November of 2013. Through the years, Kay has worked on a great number of children’s programs, encouraging literacy at all ages. Kay encouraged time outdoors, knowing staying active was important for a healthy life. Kay also took care of our magazine collection and did a wonderful job repairing damaged books. Kay loved to stay busy and was always ready to serve with a smile. She was a real team player!

Kay will be missed by everyone, Staff and patrons alike. She was truly a blessing to us all. The library will be closing on Tuesday, October 21 @ 3:00.
