I went to highschool with Brad and we became very close friends. I remember his bug very well also, even though I thought he drove it a bit to fast. I know Brad loved to snow ski an he was very good. I remember his first love, Mary. I spent many nights an days hanging at his pool just being teens. I miss those days an all miss Brad. Btw Bradley was the best looking guy in our highschool all the girls crushed on him!!

I didn’t know Brad really, didn’t even know his name. I knew him as a very kind gentleman who walked by our Edward Jones office most mornings with coffees in his hand for himself and I assume his friends.
One morning two years ago I was planting flowers in our flower bed at the office and Brad stopped and suggested that I grow English Ivy there. He thought it would look very nice with the red geraniums. He walked away and a few minutes latter he came with sprigs of Ivy to plant. Since that day, as he walked by with his coffee he always looked in the office and nodded good morning. :).We still have the ivy in the planter.
I am so sorry for your loss.

I got to know Brad a little bit during his visits to the Medical Centre.He always called me “maam” until I reminded him what my name was.He loved talking about his next fishing adventure and loved his coffee.He was always so polite and well mannered and had a beautiful laugh.
I hope there’s a great fishing hole wherever he may be.Catch one for me, Brad.Meet you on the otherside!

He was such a cutie growing up, I had the biggest crush on him. His long curly hair and that oh so cool bike with the banana bars. Him and Terry Pender would always find me before my Mom and make sure I got home safely…they were really good big brothers to me. I’m glad he’s not suffering anymore…he’s at rest with his Mom! My heart goes out to his loved ones.
