The shattered family of a Bronx man senselessly shot on a city bus for telling an obnoxious teen to pipe down revealed Wednesday that his young daughter still hasn’t grasped his death. Jonathan Pettigrew, 41, was headed to pick up the 7-year-old from daycare Monday when he got in a fateful argument with a still-unidentified youngster on a BX36 bus, his brother Avery Pettigrew, 43, told The Post. The youth — believed to be between 13 and 16 years old — fatally shot Jonathan Pettigrew in the stomach as the pair argued over the mouthy youngster talking too loud into his cell phone, police and sources said.
