I have good memories of Brad. I can still hear his soft voice and see him playing his bass guitar. God please grant peace and mercy to Brad and his family.

Brad and the Surftone's
Brad was a dear childhood friend of mine. We started playing our music at the age of 15 in the popular band the Surftones and later the Darvons. Brad was a very special one of God's creations. I hope he is realizing that now in the presence of the Lord.
