Brad sure put a smile on my face every time I saw him. God rest his soul. There was something special about him, not by having Down´s syndrome , but the love that clearly shined from his smile. Brad will surely be missed by all that knew and loved him.
Fly high Brad, you were an anglel in life, what a glorious man you´ve become in Heaven! I´m sure Elvis is right by your side! To God Be The Glory
