Final expenses for James Bradshaw

On Wednesday, February 3rd, our family's "gentle giant", James Bradshaw, went home to be with the Lord. While his last 4 months on this world were difficult, spending them in 3 hospitals from late September to New Years Day, and then at home in hospice care, he is finally pain free. His loss leaves a 6'9" high hole in our hearts, and he will be greatly missed by his family, his friends, and his extended church family which is spread across the country. 

You may be one of his "bus kids" from Ohio, or a basketball team member coached by "the enforcer", or maybe a student who learned to take apart and rebuild an engine under his teaching. Maybe you knew him or his wife, Carolyn (a.k.a. - Momma Bradshaw), through their ministry at Calvary Chapel Baptist Church, in Ohio, or Westgate Baptist Church, in Tampa, Florida. Everyone I've met who knew him has said the same thing. "I love Mr. Bradshaw!"

I am James' daughter-in-law, and have set this GoFundMe up with permission of his children. Our dad's passing was preceded by a long and costly hospitalization and rehab, and while we expected him to fully recover, he passed suddenly in his sleep. This unexpected end to his amazing life has left a fairly large financial burden. If you are not able to help financially, we would ask for your prayers for comfort and peace for the family at this time. But we, his children, would ask that if you are able and feel lead to do so, please donate to help alleviate that burden for his wife, our mom, Carolyn. (She does not know about this yet.) All donations will go to medical bills, final expenses, and living expenses for mom.
