William Bradshaw Obituary
Born on June 30, 1967, in Alaska, Bill spent his early years between Sitka and Juneau. He moved with his family to Reedsport, Oregon, as a pre-teen, where he graduated Reedsport High School. As a young adult, he followed his heart to the Bay Area, found that California life suited him, ultimately marrying, establishing roots and starting a family.
He lived a life full of spontaneity, fantastic stories, bad "dad jokes," fierce debates, and a deep love of family – particularly his two daughters who were the light of his world. Bill was proud of building a successful business contracting business.
Bill is survived by his wife of 30 years, Nicole, daughters Kylie and Sabrina (age 18 and 14), brother Jedidiah (wife Stephanie) Bradshaw, sister Jennifer O'Dell, nieces Cassandra and Hadley, nephew Ryker, as well as loved aunts, uncles, and cousins. We will carry forward his legacy of excitement for life.
A celebration of Bill's life will be held on October 5 at 2:00 p.m., Darling & Fisher Memorial Chapel, Campbell. Come to share in remembering him through laughter and stories – the type that Bill would roll his eyes over.
