    My deepest condolences for the family of Donald (Winkie) Bradshaw I grew up in the same neighborhood with him and his siblings, our mothers were close friends and as children we would visit each other. Donald was such a wonderful person as a child growing up. Back then he was quite young person. May his memories bring comfort to you all. Blessing to you all.
