RIP Mike...bob, Chris and Tim Ryan

Mike Brady was a terrific friend, colleague and professional mentor to me at COST. I'll never forget the kindness, warmth, and humor he brought to the tax profession, nor the way he stayed in touch with his COST friends and colleagues over the years. I'll truly miss the golf games, funny stories, and yes, even the terrible jokes. Rest in peace, Mike.

Mike was one of my best friends over the years. My deepest condolences to Sandy and the family.

Mike was one of the first people I remember meeting when I started my career in tax and began attending COST meetings. I will always remember him for his dedication to COST and its members, his wit and humor, his love of all things golf and Notre Dame, and as a very sharp dresser. He was a friend to many who will be missed in our community. My condolences to Mike's family at this difficult time.

God love and keep you, Brad. 62 years of friendship has been ours and that's what I'm remembering right now. You are one in a million. Strong of heart and true to her name. Our Lady of the Lake will welcome you home.

Sincere condolences, wonderful Sandy, Tom, Brian and Shannon.

What an amazing baseball coach. Still remember like yesterday when he caught a zooming foul ball barehanded heading right to the bench, without missing a beat with his cigar. And all those rides he gave to us kids after practice, his car stuffed like a clown's in the circus. I feel blessed to be a member of the Brady Bunch. Our condolences and prayers to the family. Mr. Brady was a class act and I couldn't imagine my Lookout childhood without him.

So sorry about the loss of Mr. Brady but find comfort to know he is with some of his children in Heaven. Love and Prayers to the family.

RIP Mike...you were a wonderful neighbor and a great American...you will be missed...love-Bob,Chris and Tim Ryan

So sorry for your loss. My prayers and thoughts are with you.
