John ‘Jake” Bradshaw was born in Ontario in 1935. He lived in Ontario his entire life.
He was a dedicated employee of Upland Unified School District for 38 years. Shortly after retiring he began working part-time at the Upland YMCA, he worked there for 10 years. During his retirement he was an active member of St. George Catholic Church assisting with the RCIA program and serving as a Eucharistic Minister in the church and also to those in the community that were unable to attend mass. He was an avid golfer and a ‘sharp as a tack’ poker player that rarely missed his weekly game with friends.
He was a happy, fun-loving person who was always willing to try new things. He loved conversation and especially loved it when it accompanied a good cup of coffee!
His patience, friendliness and keen sense of humor touched all of our lives. He will be terribly missed.
