Dear Norma And Family
I'm very sorry for your loss. It has been years since I've seen Brad. I know that when he was young he was a fine young man. From what I have heard he grew into the kind of man that Dick would be very proud of. My heart and prayers go out to you all. May God grant you all peace.

Dear Lori, Katelyn, Ben and Families, There are no words to describe such heartache for you or to ease the pain enough but words and prayers are all we have. Does it help for so many to tell you again and again what you already know? Brad was a good guy when I knew him 30 years ago but I think he had grown to even a greater man since. I hope you are finding your greatest consolation in Jesus, the I AM, and that these Words of Life would also encourage and strengthen you.
I Cor. 15:42-49 The body that is "sown" is perishable, it is raised imperishable; it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weekness, it is raised in power; it is sown a natural body it is raised in a spiritual body....And just as we have borne the likeness of the earthly man, so shall "he" bear the likeness of the "man from heaven".
God will bring blessing and honor even through this wicked devestation.
Love as your sister in HIM,
Rhonda Clark Bradley

Both My son and I were truly impressed by Brad. He was my son's hunter safety instructor. He just had that "great guy" aura. We are truly sorry for your loss. May God give you all strength now and forever.
