Triston Lee Bradshaw, 24, passed away unexpectedly from a car accident on July 9, 2023. Triston was born on his brother’s birthday, May 3, 1999, in Allegan, Michigan. He grew up in the family home on Ida Street, surrounded by a neighborhood of close friends and watchful parents. When they say “it takes a village…” this was his village. Triston attended Allegan Public Schools and after graduating high school he moved to Vicksburg, Michigan. It didn’t take him long to find his path in life. He began courses in the Electrical Apprenticeship program at Kalamazoo Valley Community College and was working in his dream job as an Apprentice Electrician, with Esper Electric. He would have become a Journeyman Electrician very soon. Triston truly lived life to the fullest; he enjoyed time with his family and friends. He was the fun and playful uncle to the little ones. He had an exceptional talent for electronics, building computers and radio systems. He also really enjoyed hiking, camping, hunting, and fishing.
He is survived by his parents, Terry, and Marcia Bradshaw; brother, Cameron (Courtney) Bradshaw; sister, Tara Bradshaw; great-grandparents, Marilyn McEntyre, and Dorothy McEntyre; grandparents, Janet McEntyre, and Daniel (Evelyn) Heppe; niece, Leah Bradshaw; nephew, Hunter Bradshaw; along with several aunts, uncles, cousins, and close friends.
He was preceded in death by his great-grandfather, Everett McEntyre; grandparents, Richard and Doris Bular and Robert Bradshaw Jr; aunt, Shannon Heppe.
Family, friends, and others whose lives Triston touched are invited to Gorden Funeral Residence, 528 Trowbridge St., in Allegan on Saturday, July 22, 2023. Visitation will begin at 11:00 am, with a memorial service at 1:00 pm officiated by Pastor Herbert Curry.
