  9. My condolences to you all. Auntie was an amazing compassionate caring loving woman. I enjoyed all our phone calls the past few years. She loved sharing stories and hearing them. She will be missed. Thanks for everything you’ve done and have given us about the Bradshaw family. We learned a lot because of you. I love you xo.

  10. We are all very sorry for your loss. I bet she was as wonderful a great-grandmother as she was a wife, mother, grandmother and godmother. I was very fortunate to have Uncle George and Aunt Bea as my godparents. Always so loving, generous, and kind. I had many wonderful conversations with her toward the end, over the last few years. My biggest regret is that I didn’t start them earlier or keep in touch more over the years. She is a family treasure and we will all miss her and Uncle George so much. It is right that they are back together again forever. Love, Carl

  11. Dear Eileen, Elaine, Laurie and families,

  12. Aunt Beatrice was very kind, gracious and hospitable. She always found a way to assist and support others. She was a great role model and inspiration for those who would live a long life with compassion, mercy and dignity. She treated me with open arms despite that I had not remained in contact with her for a long time . I enjoyed all of her anecdotes, reminiscences and memories that she was willing to share at a call’s notices. She was a devoted spouse, parent and Catholic.

  13. Our Deepest Sympathies, to your Family.

    Rest In Peace , Love Ya!
