My heart-felt condolences to the family and friends of the Bradshaws. I always knew Bruce as "Shaw", my next door neighbor, classmate, and basketball teammate on the Central High Basketball team. It is more than 30 years since I had heard " Shaw" call me "Crazyhorse", and I will always keep his memory close to me. Joe Quintana Class of '75 Wildcats.

What a loss this is. This man was more than a teacher or a coach. He was a friend and mentor, he always told you how it was whether its what you wanted to hear. He taught many lessons on living life to the fullest and grasping your own destiny. For those who never had the pleasure of knowing him, they missed out on alot. But his life and lessons will remain in the hearts of those he touched for years to come. RIP Mr. B, you are missed greatly. My heart goes out to the family at this time of sorrow.

Coach was an inspiration and a joy in our lives. He knew that, as busy high schoolers, we needed that extra push. Along with helping us succeed, he gave us love and friendship. He was always there to help us with whatever we needed. He will always be in our hearts. Lots of Thunderbird love to you Coach! My prayers are with your family, friends and all of your "kids".
