James M Bradshaw

James M. Bradshaw, known to all as Jim, of Mira Loma, Calif. but Redfield, AR was always home, was born October 7, 1948 in Pine Bluff, Ark., the son of Garland J. Bradshaw and Vera Rutherford Bradshaw. Jim was a proud veteran of Vietnam, USN and after serving our country made his home in California. He loved his family and enjoyed watching his sons become men, bonfires on the beach, trick or treating and caroling with Leroy and Holly, his dogs, laughing and living life to its fullest. His two sons are proud to have inherited his unique sense of humor, or as Jim would put it, "Messin." He enjoyed sports, baseball, swimming, golfing, etc., but his love was basketball. To find Jim you only had to look as far as the nearest basketball court and when you found Jim it was with his brothers Ricky, Larry "Grish", Marcus, Jackie and too many others to name. Jim died of a heart attack at the age of 70 on November 29, 2018 in Riverside County Regional Medical Center, Moreno Valley, Calif. He was preceded in death by his father, Garland James Bradshaw. He is survived by Lori Bradshaw, their two sons and families: Christopher "Chris" and Amber Bradshaw of Texas, Timothy "Tim", Tegan, and Townesend Bradshaw of Arizona; his mother, Vera Bradshaw of Redfield; two sisters and their families, Mary Ann, Paul, Michele and Danielle "Dani" Jordan of Redfield, Frances, Jeff and Michael Reinert of Minnesota and Jason, Amanda, Shelia and Orion Reinert of North Dakota. We will not be having a funeral service for Jim, instead we will celebrate his life with family and friends from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on April 14, 2019 at Mobley's Depot, 100 NW Railroad St., Redfield. Please come and share your memories. Thank you, Ricky, Mary, Brian and Brad Mobley for making this possible.
