To Brad's family: My name is Gary Moerke. I worked with Brad when both he and I worked for Unisys. He was the salesman for Air Canada and I was the service provider. We had many phone calls to each other and he told me a lot about all of you. We spent time together at our Marketing Center at St. Paul de France near Nice. He was a great business partner and a good friend. He told me many times that Thanksgiving was his favorite holiday. It was a day to cook and relax. Please accept my condolences. We lost a good man.

I had the good fortune of working with both Brad and Pat at United Airlines. He was good at his job, but more importantly he was one of those people who could be trusted to always do the right thing. His word was as good as gold. When my wife and I moved to Chicago in 1991, Brad and Pat made us feel welcome and Brad made sure I knew exactly where to play the best golf. He was equally fun to be around on the golf course as he was in the office. He made everyone around him smile and feel better about themselves. He's one of the good guys.

I just wanted to say on this day that all the kids at peacock, benson, and Franzen will miss Mr. Mash very much. He was the best sub ever and always made everyone´s day at school. He was the reason why we wanted to come to school. Rest in heaven.
