Staff Sergeant Kenneth “KB” Anthony Bradshaw, Jr.

Kenneth “KB” Anthony Bradshaw Jr. entered this world on May 24, 2000, in Orlando, FL to Ken and Paula Bradshaw.

Family was everything to Kenneth and it was very apparent in the relationship he had with Pops – Ken, his Ma and especially his little sisters, Eternity and Eva (the Jits). His desire to nurture the family bonds were reflective of the close relationships he had with his Grand parents: Fred Bradwshaw, Frances Bradshaw, Mildred “Meme” Kemp (William) and William “Uncle Petey” Hall. His love for family was extended to all, and he really enjoyed the time spent at ALL family gatherings – Holidays, cookouts, sporting and special events. He cherished his Aunts, Unc’s, cousins, and extended family – wish we could name them all. The road trav eled between North Carolina, Georgia, and Jacksonville, Florida, were filled with competition, laughter, love, and jokes.

As a Friend: Kenneth was blessed to build very meaningful relationships throughout his life, that often transcended the bonds of friendship. If you know KB, you know he valued those that surrounded him. The memories, milestones, and dreams. Jakobi Bonner, D’Andre Fletcher, Isaiah Webber, and Chandler Grant. As a Soldier: Staff Sergeant Bradshaw served as a Cyber Operations Specialist with distinction. A role he excelled at and thoroughly enjoyed. While serving on active duty, Kenneth completed his BS in Cybersecurity Management and Policy, with plans to begin his master’s degree in August 2025. His footprint in the Army reflected the standard of excellence he embodied.

As a Teammate: T-ball, flag football, to Pop Warner with the Avalon Wolves, traveling all over the East Coast with his Central Florida Magic Family. The conversations, video games, dreams, and bonds were cemented for life. The impact of The Master’s Academy, Lake Nona HS, and Catawba College continued to mold and enhance his character.

Faith: Ain’t No Church Like This Church, and his foundation was built at St. Mary’s Mis sionary Baptist Church. He knew his Lord and Savior, without a shadow of doubt. He was raised in a wonderful community and cherished as such. He continued worship with friends and team members in Augusta, GA. Although his dash has come to an end, his light is still shining brightly and will forever live within us. Whatever purpose Kenneth served in your life, hold fast to those principals, stay disciplined and focused, laugh and love – Remember “it don’t matter”.
