The Lahue-Bradshaw
Cemetery Association and the members of the Bradshaw Family
would like to express their gratitude and thanks to the Imogene
Bradshaw Day family for their large contribution to the Cemetery
Fund. The proceeds from the estate yard sale were given to the
Lahue-Bradshaw Cemetery Association. This was a very generous
thing for the family to do for the maintenance of the cemetery.
The Bradshaw Family also had a bake sale in conjunction with the
yard sale. Our thanks go out to everyone who participated or
helped in any way to make this such a success.

Clean up 2010 After raining over night, the sun came
out Saturday morning for the work day and meeting at the
Cemetery and then the rain came back in the afternoon. With the
good turnout and not too much to do, we got the cleanup and
meeting done before the rains returned. Thank you to all who
came out. We had a good day of visiting.
=======================
Clean up
2009
What a great day! I thought I would
supervise but everyone was too busy to
listen. Some of the in-laws say you can't
supervise a Bradshaw but I like to believe
we work hard and know what we are doing so
we don't need supervision. I expected to get
the cemetery cleaned up and maybe some of
the entrance but with the great turn-out and
the help of Benny's tractor, we got
everything in pretty good shape. We all had
a good time
working and visiting. Thank you everyone
that came to work, visit, and bring snacks.
It was good to see Dennis out of the house
and I am glad that Uncle Charlie, Aunt
Dallas, Mom, and Aunt Opal could be there.
Now will you listen?
Dorothy sent me to help you hold up the post.
If I get any fatter I'll have to have a bigger mower
Of course I know yogi
I used to climb any tree but now it takes a tractor to lift me up.
The Lahue-Bradshaw Cemetery
Association met at the cemetery April 26, 2008 at 9:00am for the
annual cleanup with an association meeting to follow.

Boyd Day, Beverly Thomas, Bennie Day, Dallas Tubb, Dennis Tubb,
Sheila Tubb Meredith, David Meredith, Charlie Blain, Terry
Blain, Faye Stewart, Paula Burden and Brandy Lee and friend.
Most of the cleanup consisted of removing an old and very large
cedar tree that had fallen during a storm onto a portion of the
new fence. It was decided that there was enough new fence left
over to repair the damaged portion.
The business meeting was called to order at 10:30am by
Vice-President Dorothy Buster in the absence of President Bill
Day. Minutes were read by Sec/Treas Faye Stewart of the previous
meeting. She reported that she had combined a $1000.00, $1800.00
and a $500.00 CD making a total of $3400.00 CD and placed it at
The Cecilian Bank to receive a better rate. The 2 other ones
will be moved when they come due at the Bank of Caneyville to
The Cecilian Bank also. The balance in the checking account at
the Leitchfield Deposit Bank at the present time is $866.81. She
also reported that Mike Blain will once again be doing the
mowing of the cemetery at a rate of $30.00 per mowing.
There was discussion once again of getting some type of sign for
the cemetery. Bennie Day is to check with the Grayson Co. Trade
School about making one and the cost and Faye Stewart is to
check with Crume’s Monuments about making a monument type.
Motion was made by Sheila Meredith, seconded by Paula Burden to
adjourn. Everyone enjoyed a picnic lunch and fellowship before
leaving.
Next meeting will be held the last Saturday in April, 2009.
