Donna Bradley, who managed the Inter-Faith Council’s Community Kitchen for many years, has passed away after battling cancer.

IFC executive director Michael Reinke announced Bradley’s passing in an e-mail on Friday.

Reinke wrote that Bradley “passed away peacefully surrounded by her loved ones.”

A story on Orange County’s website describes Bradley as someone who learned from an early age to take advantage of what was available.

“An Orange County native, Donna Bradley learned to cook from her grandmother. They grew much of their own food; thus Donna learned from an early age to start with what was on hand.”

Funeral arrangements have not been announced at this time.
