Joseph G. Bradshaw ’40

After several years of declining health, Joe died on May 13, 2001. He was 82. For the past eight years, he lived at Pine Run Community in Doylestown, Pa.

Always the loyal classmate, affable companion, and leader, his greatest satisfactions were in his family and his good works at the two educational institutions that helped frame his life endeavors. He was a trustee at Peddie School and, until he retired, served as alumni secretary and business manager at Princeton. Joe was particularly pleased to follow in the footsteps of Don Griffin '23.

Graduating with a degree in chemical engineering, Joe worked for Koppers Co. of Pittsburgh for 18 years in a variety of managerial capacities, before joining Princeton.

From 1964 until 1993 Joe and his family lived at Squire Lea Farm in the Pittstown, N.J., area. He is survived by his wife of 59 years, Dorothy Carey Bradshaw, his daughters, Jane B. Gilbert and Laura Bradshaw, and his brother, Thomas W.

The class extends its deepest sympathy to his family on the loss of this devoted Princetonian.
