Not sure what to say?

Brad was a fine pilot and an expert at whatever task he might have chosen. One task that sticks in my mind was a ride in his Porche along I-70 east from the Alpa Office to the FAL hanger. We were really moving and I glanced at the speedometer and it read 110 mph....And then he shifted to top gear. I'm sure we'd have gone faster but our exit was approaching rapidly. When we got to the hanger a rear tire was nearly flat. Last time I rode with Brad!

To Denice and the family: Our most...

My condolences to everyone. Brad was truly a great guy, and I know you miss him terribly. I have really fond memories of our families getting together when we were growing up in Denver and our Dad's telling great stories of their adventures together (remember the backyard carnival? and putting Jeff in the dryer? and your Dad steadying my broken leg driving from Breckenridge to Frisco during a huge blizzard).

Brad was always smiling and a wonderful friend. He and his wife Denise attended the 2008 Frontier Reunion held in Chandler Desert Breeze Park. It was great to see them and never thought it would be the last. He will be with us in Spirit and will be missed by his family and friends. May he rest in Peace. G. Treptow, Gilbert AZ.

Captain Brad Hurd will live forever in the memories and hearts of all who knew him. He was an extraordinary aviator and a rare kind of friend that will never be replaced or duplicated.

Bradley, God speed on your Westbound flight....you are cleared direct, block altitude surface to the heavens, speed your discretion.

Denise....May God bless and comfort you and the family through these most difficult times.

The likes of Captain Brad Hurd will never pass this way again. It's so difficult to say goodbye to such an extraordinary aviator who was also such a special friend. Bradley, you will never be forgotten by all who knew you. God speed Westbound!

Denise, everyone's thoughts and prayers are with you, Brian and the rest of the family.

Many fond memories of Brad coming through Casper, Williston and Pueblo. He was always freindly and cheerful. A tough lost to those who knew him.

All of us, friends, family & neighbors have been blessed knowing Brad. He was someone very special. Knowing he has Flown West is difficult...

We'll think of him soaring thru smooth air with warm-soft tailwinds and a bright star to steer by on his final earthly flight.

All Brad's many friends at the old Frontier Airlines are saddened by his passing.
Our condolences to his family.
