Bradley Raymond SHEA

Dearest Shea family,

Our hearts are broken over Brad's sudden and premature passing. As neighbors for over 40 years, we were more than neighbors, as our children grow up together and we were there for each other for life's ups and downs. Losing Brad is like losing family. Times like this remind us how connected we all are, in some way, in either the past, present and/or future. He will be remembered as an extraordinary and brilliant human being, with an ever ending list of...

I had the pleasure of working for Brad as his Assistant Mgr at the Paramus SR Store for 7 years. I was a beer man, however, Brad took me under his gentle wing and together we both accomplished the esteemed Sommilier Wine Expert Level.Im having a toast of Pinot Noir right now my friend. I am going to miss you "big guy", for I do not have any intelligent people to have a
"wine talk" with anymore. Peace.

Shea Family, I was so saddened to hear the news of Brad’s passing. I fondly recall the many enjoyable hours we all spent together in our younger youth - but listening and talking about music and stereos with Brad was always special - he had a truly great “ear.” Crazy, I still have the Allison 4s he expertly helped me choose all those years ago. He was wonderfully patient, listening and testing speakers that could handle both Mozart and Led Zeppelin. I know that your loving memories of...

To the Shea Family,
I just learned of Brad's passing and I am so sorry. I will always remember your house as the one where everyone gathered. I not only had a wonderful friend in Betty, but the rest of you as well. I am very saddened by this news.

Brad family,
Sorry I got the news too late to show my condolences to your family in person. Brad I was about 16 when I met you in the old Paramus Shoprite. Everyday I would get my 2 cans of diet pepsi and a pack of merit ultra lights. You always had rung me up and ready when you saw me coming in. I remembered how pleasant and mellow you always were, from my perspective you never seemed rattled by anything. I admired your sense of calmness and peace. I was a fellow spinal tap fan, I think...

Today I learned of Brad's passing. I was deeply saddened. I called on Brad at Shoprite and he was among my favorite accounts. He was simply put-a wonderful man. I will really miss him and his movie reviews. I send my wishes to his family.-Mark Mitchell

To Brad's Family: I am shocked and saddened to hear of Brad's passing. He was such a gentle, kind soul and although it's been many years since I've seen him, I have nothing but pleasant memories of him (he was my ex's "Wednesday music/film buddy" and it was always nice to see him at our home each Wednesday when I came in from work). My sincere condolences to you all. And to you, Brad, may you rest peacefully in the arms of the angels, old friend.

To the Shea family. I worked with Brad for many years and still saw and spoke to him while visiting Shop Rite Liquars. He will greatly be missed.

I mainly had a telephone friendship with Brad at work for over 11 years and he was such a terrific person. I could always count on "Old What's His Name!" Brad was one of a kind and will truly be missed . My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. Rest in Peace, Brad. XO Your "Bud"!!
