Brad Olson Obituary
Cremation has taken place under the direction of Sunset Memorial Funeral Home.
Brad is survived by his parents, Terry and Helen Guill and Raymond Olson; a sister, Brenda Lazaroff; a brother, Scott Olson; stepsisters Michelle Hopp, Theresa Garten and Monica Polson; grandparents Foley and Dorothy Guill; his fiancée, Tawna Taylor; his best friend, Charley Hudgins ("Brad was the brother I never had"); as well as numerous nieces, nephews, aunts and uncles.
Brad was born Jan. 9, 1973, in Polson. He took life one day at a time, loved to make you laugh, was upfront and an honest and hard worker. He loved his music and his motorcycle, and had planned to attend a motorcycle mechanic institute. He enjoyed lifting weights and was very artistic. Brad was the kind of man who loved to help people, asking nothing in return. His laughter and smile will be missed by all who knew and loved him.
He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Edward and Vivian Nelson, and George and Rose Olson.

I am so sorry for the lost of your dear loved one. It's comforting to know that God cares for all of us and losing a loved one is something we cannot get used to. The Bible gives us hope that one day we can see our dear loved one again. On behalf of all mankind Jesus surrender his soul for many. John 15:13 says “No one has love greater than this, that someone should surrender his soul on behalf of his friends.” Truly I am sorry to hear of the loss of your dear loved one and I hope these few words will bring you comfort and hope.

Brad was fun to hang out with. We went on a fishing trip one summer up at Tiber and caught several different creatures when we got back to camp we showed his mom and of course she made us turn them loose. We had so many adventures together. I will miss Brad. My sympathy to his family and friends.
