ALPENA Frank Mays, the last living survivor of the 1958 wreck of the Carl D. Bradley, died on Thursday.
Originally from Rogers City, Mays was one of two people to survive the sinking of the Bradley, a self-unloading bulk freighter that split in two and sank during a storm on Nov. 18, 1958 about 12 miles south of Gull Island on Lake Michigan.
The 89-year-old died at Advent Health Hospital in Zephyrhills, Florida, according to his obituary. Mays moved to Florida in 1982 and lived in Dade City.
“Coming so close to death at such an early age, he was basically going to live life, and, if there was something he wanted to do, he did it,” his daughter, Laine Mays, said.
