Dearest Katie, It's been a long time since I have seen you and Brad, when I used to live in Attica. I will ALWAYS remember him as being so nice to me and his big hearty laugh!:) Someone once told me when my mom passed early in my life, that I will see her again, that it's a lifetime for us but a moment in time for them. My prayers go out to you and all of the family. God Bless! Roll on Brad!! You will be missed!

Katie,
I was deeply saddened to hear of Brad's passing. You have lost a devoted husband and others have lost a great friend and old classmate.
A scholarship in Brad's honor will allow him to continue helping area youth for years to come. A great idea!

Katie, my heart is nroken for both Brad and Kaylee. She will miss her grandpa and I know she would have been so happy visiting and growing up with him as a guiding light. Brad will always be looking out and watching over you and the rest of the family now. I feel that I have been blessed knowing Brad and having something so wonderful in common with him, Kaylee.

Katie and family,
Brad was a great co-worker but most importantly he was a great friend. Brad never knew a stranger. His love for his wife and family was a true indication of what was most important in his life. Many memories were made over the.years with family and friends. May these memories be never forgotten.
