Wyatt Ellis Bradshaw

Wyatt Ellis Bradshaw of Orange Grove, Texas, departed this life for a better one on April 25, 2026. He was born on November 30, 1996. Wyatt brought joy, laughter, and a spirited energy to all who knew him.

Wyatt grew up in Orange Grove, where he attended school, played sports, and built lifelong friendships. He graduated from Orange Grove High School in 2015, carrying with him a strong sense of community and a love for the people and traditions that shaped him.

An adventure-seeking outdoorsman, Wyatt had a deep passion for hunting and fishing. He recently returned to his roots, spending time riding and roping with friends—something that brought him great happiness. Wyatt also had a generous heart, dedicating time to helping youth with show animals and volunteering at the auction at the Jim Wells County Fair. His willingness to lend a hand and invest in others spoke volumes about his character.

Wyatt will be remembered for his loving and affectionate nature, his quick wit and sarcastic humor, and his easy smile that could light up any room. He had a special way of making people feel welcome and valued, and the memories he created with family and friends will be cherished forever.

He is survived by his parents, Lori Bradshaw of Orange Grove and Charlie (Cheryl Wheeler) Bradshaw Jr. of George West; his maternal grandmother, Linda Jeanette Streadl of Alice; his aunts, Kim Streadl (Heath Gonzales) of Sandia, Jana (Chevy) Ford of Brackettville, and Vicki Bradshaw (Paul) Jamison of Taft. His cousins, Logan Streadl of Orange Grove, Brayden, Brynlee, Corben, and Holden Ford of Brackettville, Aislynn Campbell of Taft, John (Marlena) Jamison of Port Aransas, and Lauren Schafer (Ben) Conner of Borger, Texas; along with many friends and extended family members who will always love him and cherish the memories he gifted them.

Wyatt was preceded in death by his maternal grandfather, Alvin John Streadl, Jr.; his paternal grandparents, Charlie Bradshaw Sr. and Barbara Bradshaw; and his aunt, Elizabeth Bradshaw Schafer.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made in Wyatt’s honor to the Hunt with Heart organization, which provides outdoor experiences to children with life-threatening illnesses—a cause that reflects Wyatt’s love of the outdoors and his giving spirit.

Services will be held at Brush Country Cowboy Church in George West, Texas, on Saturday, May 2, 2026. Visitation will be from 10:00 to 11:00 a.m., with services beginning at 11:00 a.m., followed by a luncheon and fellowship. Burial will be at a later date.

Wyatt’s life reminds us to embrace each day with enthusiasm, kindness, and a sense of adventure. He will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
