Mary and family,

We are so sad to hear of Brad's passing. You were some of the best neighbors we could have asked for when we lived in East Irondequoit and Brad was always there to help with anything we needed. We will truly miss him but know that he is no longer suffering.

Love, Mike and Jordan

I was so very sad to learn that God had called Brad home so soon. I knew Brad when we were young and have always regretted that we fell out of touch. The best New Years' Eve of my life was spent with Brad and his family (at the Rochester Club, I think?). I wish his family peace and the joy of happy memories of this dear soul. Catch up with you on the other side, Brad!
