Centerville
Julian E. Bagley, 75, of Centerville passed away Feb. 27, 2021, after a battle with cancer. He was born Oct. 20, 1945, in Bangor, son of Roy and Gladys (Sinclair) Bagley.
After graduating from Bucksport High School in 1964, he worked as a truck driver. He served in the U.S. Army from 1965 to 1967, stationed in Fort Carson, Colo., and Korea. After his service, he worked as an independent trucker, then later for Bluebird Ranch trucking in Jonesboro for many years.
Julian had a quick wit, wonderful sense of humor and never met a stranger he didn’t want to talk to at some length. He also never saw a field that he didn’t want to mow.
