The Bradshaw reunion at Brady started after Eula and her husband, John Henry, invited relatives and friends to their 50th anniversary celebration in 1974. They made the decision not to get together only at weddings,funerals and other similar affairs anymore, so the annual event began. Scores of relative, close and distant, still attend the event. Eula was a very special woman, with a kind word and thought for everyone she knew or met. Everyone thought the world of her, and she is greatly missed.
