It's been over two years now and I still think of you every single day and night. I love you and I know you are at peace and I cannot wait to see you again. Everyone you knew misses you so much. You and your family changed, and in turn saved, my life. I will always love you. I'll be seeing you.

Mrs. and Mrs. Attaway, I wanted so badly to be there. I was there in spirit though, I cant stop thinking about him. I pray for you guys and your family. I loved Brad so much. I am so glad I got to speak with him couple days before. I got to tell him that I loved him and missed him. He sounded good and happy. He was about to eat dinner with you guys.He told me how proud he was of Nick playing sports and how big he was and how pretty Allie was, and Steele was so cute. He loved his family so much and would want you all to be nothing but happy even though it wont be the same without him. He was a wonderful person and I thank god everyday still that he was apart of my life for so long. He is a huge part of who I am today. He will never be forgotten, I will carry a part of him with me everyday. I smile when I think of you Brad and I pray one day I will see you again. I love you always, Cara

Mr. & Mrs. Attaway and Family, I am so sorry for your loss. I have known Brad since 6th grade, he has been a longtime friend of mine. I still cant believe he is gone. It is so hard to believe he is gone when I just talked to him the other day. He was a great friend of mine for so long and I miss him more than words can say. He meant so much to a lot of people. He was such an amazing friend. You all are in my thoughts in prayers. I know he is watching over all of us and I know he is happy and in a better place.
