We would like to keep in better touch with you guys, as we have not seen or talked to you since you bought your first house in Taylorsville.

Again, we are sorry for your loss. It is painful to lose a life of a family member/loved one.

Best wishes,

My deepest, deepest sympathies to Brad's family. We were friends in high school, and I have nothing but the fondest memories of his subtle, clever sense of humor and his seemingly ever-pleasant and friendly disposition. It was impossible not to like him, and I'm thankful I got the chance to know him. My heart is broken for all those closest to him, especially Katie and the kids. May God bless and watch over you.

I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I did'nt know him that well but I did know him and from what I hear this world lost a great Husband, Father, Brother, Son and friend. Please always remember never to blame God, because you will find the only way to deal with this and gain strength will be through God. Always remember when we weep for the dead we are weeping for ourselves. He has returned home with his Father in heaven(God) and his brother's and sister's through Christ. Now you and your family have a wonderful Guardian Angel to always watch over and protect the one's he loved here on earth, he may not be here physically but he is here in your hearts spirtitually. We never understand the bigger plan God has, we can't we are humans so please believe, love, and trust always in your God
Much Sympathy and Love,

I met Brad when I was working at Papa Kelseys in Idaho Falls when I was 16 years old, Brad was 17. I worked with Brad's best friend, Jeremy Butler. We would always have fun at work and I remember Brad would come in after closing and hang out till all our work was done. I remember on certain evening when we were all goofing around, I don't remember what exactly what we were all doing all I remember is Brad lifted me up and put me in the huge sink for the dishes. It was so funny, i'll never forget it. I wish the best to the family. I always knew Katie and Brad would end up together. Brad was so good to Katie and his children and I send all my love to them and the rest of the family.

I will keep you in my prayers....I lost my son in a fiery plane crash last year, and I know your sorrow.
