I remember Brad from way back in elementary school at Gatewood! He accepted eveyone he met and considered all people his friend. While I haven't been in touch with Brad for many years, I know how blessed each person who knew him is for having him in their life at one time or another. My thoughts and prayers are with Brad's family and friends.

We were very sad when we received the call from Dave Dyer informing us that Brad had passed away. Brad was my roommate for many years. We shared so many good times together to include camping trips to Duluth, pictionary parties and much, much more. We tried to help Brad through some hard times and always offered our support. It was difficult to see Brad fall on such times. We know now that he is at peace. Now there is somebody that will help him and take care of him as we all tried to do. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Brad's family and friends.



Brad we love you.

Dear Brad's family:

I worked with Brad at Minnetonka Davanni's about 8 years ago. He was a very caring and funny guy. I loved working with him. I'm so sorry for your loss. May your good memories of Brad always live in your heart, as they will in mine. God bless you.

Brad was a very special person and very dear to me. He was a great friend and a wonderful human being. He was the kind of man who could make you smile no matter what. Some people are lucky enough to have a memory with someone where, no matter what kind of mood you are in, if you think of that memory, it makes you smile - or even laugh. I am lucky to say I have many of those memories with Brad. He had a huge heart and always made me laugh. I am grateful for the times I shared with him. My heart goes out to you - his family and friends. But I also find comfort, knowing that Brad has found peace. He is in a better place now, and making many others happy with his great spirit.

My thoughts & prayers are with him and his family. I graduated with Brad at Hopikins High School. It was a shock to

hear the terrible news about such a nice classmate.

I am very sad to hear of Brads passing. He and I worked together at the Davanni's in Richfield and had many good times. We tried to keep in touch after he left but with families and jobs it became harder and harder. I will always remember his fabulous smile and more than fabulous personality. I will miss him. Prayers to all the Dyers.

My heart is saddened by the news of Brad's death and even more that he was never able to break out of his prison of chemical dependency.

I was Brad's co-worker, for a time his boss, and I think, a friend. I knew him and tried to "walk" with him through some good times and some bad times. Despite his struggles he had a very kind and good heart. He blessed the lives of many of the employees and customers of Davanni's and I'm sure many others whose lives intersected with his.

My prayers go out to his parents, family and other loved ones. I too have lost a family member to chemical dependency and I know all of the feelings associated with that journey. I pray God's peace for all of you now that Brad has found his.
