PHILADELPHIA — Eagles All-Pro cornerback James Bradberry can still vividly recall memories as a child with his late grandmother, Glennie Marie Wilson, back in the family’s hometown of Pleasant Grove, Ala.
As Bradberry and his younger sister, Takia, developed into their teenage years in a single-parent household, their mother, Rosie, helped move Wilson into a nearby retirement community. When Bradberry wasn’t playing youth football or basketball, he often visited his grandmother, and he remembers interacting with her elderly neighbors.
Bradberry experienced a full-circle moment Tuesday afternoon when he and his 3-year-old daughter, Xena, visited residents at the Simpson House senior care facility in West Philadelphia.
