Many thanks to Mr/ Stafford. He mentioned my father, William Badger Pride in one of his commentaries. He gave this mblack farmer much respect. He must have been a good man.

Brad was always kind, patient and nice when I was a reporter at WBTV in the early '90s. Over the years when I would see him "in the field" setting up a live shot or shooting video, he always greeted me as an old friend. He was a gentle spirit with a warm smile and big heart. I'm grateful for the experience of knowing him.

Lizzy and Ian, we were neighbors in Elizabeth oh so many years ago, when you were little ones. Your dad and I would cross paths in the news biz over the years, as Ian and I did at Children's Theatre. Just want you to know that you are in my thoughts, with deepest sympathy.

Brad and I were best friends, and I loved him very much. I am truly heart-broken that he is no longer a big part of not only my life, but of many lives. Brad was the best man at my wedding as I was at his. We spent so many great times together, and I will cherish those memories. I knew Brad to be a very kind, gentle, free-spirited soul, and always willing to help with anything. It was truly an honor and a privilege just to know Brad. I already miss him greatly. Condolences and prayers go out to his family during this very difficult time. Brad is certainly an example of a wonderful guy gone much too soon. R.I.P., my friend!
