Bradd NEWTON Obituary
NEWTON, Bradd Wesley
With a heavy heart, we mourn the loss of our beloved Bradd who was taken from us way too soon at the age of 43 on November 26, 2009. Bradd was born in Sacramento, CA on July 20, 1966. He attended All Hallows Catholic School and graduated from Christian Brothers High School in 1984. He is survived by his two sons, Tyler and Keoni Newton,who were his life and his wife, Cynthia Newton. Loving son of Marion and Gloria Newton. Loving brother to Karri and Jeff Young and the best uncle to Kendal, Bryce and Jayce Young. He will be sadly missed by many uncles, aunts, cousins and friends. He was a very hard worker and loved his job where he held the position VP of operations at Pinnacle Capital Mortgage Corporation. Bradd's passions included his 2 boys, his family, his work, coaching baseball at Elk Grove High School, where many knew him as "Coach Bradd", Notre Dame and especially the Boston Red Sox. Bradd touched many in his short time with his hard work and dedication to everything in life. He will be sorely missed by everyone that had the chance to know him and share in his life. Services will be held on Friday, December 4, 2009 at 10am at East Lawn, 9189 East Stockton Blvd., Elk Grove, CA. Baseball uniforms are welcome. A celebration of his life will follow. Directions will be handed out at the ceremony. You will never be forgotten.......

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.
November 29, 2018
Our Son,
This is the ninth year of losing you and no matter how many years it is they are still hard like it's the day of your death! We just had another death in the family and that just hits home to us again, no one thinks their child will die before them!
Right now Dad is going through a lot of testing and missing you very much so please pray for Dad to get through all of this! All the testing has gotten to him so he needs uplifting now! We're hoping for good news this Christmas!
There is going to be a new addition in January which you would like. Hope you got our messages on Monday!
Our hearts are always with you!
We Love You very much and will see you in heaven!❤❤❤❤
Always and Forever,
Mom, Dad and Brei

My Son
Can't even describe how much we miss you, hopefully you got our messages on your Birthday! It was a hard day for Dad and I!
I'm hoping and praying now you can help Dad with all he's going through by saying a lot of prayers for him. He has a lot ahead of him with numerous tests and the waiting.
The old statement you use to say Dad will be alright is what we are praying for every day! He is getting tired of all the Drs. he has had to see.
I know by now you know about Gomez passing and at his celebration of life we saw so many of your friends from All Hallows and Christian Brothers plus Baseball friends from Tahoe Tallac Little League, it was hard on Dad but he was glad he went. Gomez meant a lot to so many and his kids did a beautiful job putting it on. We were seeing Gomez once a month when some of the parents from All Hallows and the crab feeds got together for dinner at different restaurants and houses and we plan on carrying them on in Gomez memory. He would always comment on the phrases we put in the paper for you, that meant a lot to us!
There will always be an emptiness in Dad and my hearts for you but we know we will see you someday.
Love You Always,
Mom❤
July 31, 2017
Son,
I know you read the message we sent you on your Birthday which again is hard to say Happy Birthday because it's not happy without you! But we know you see and hear us! Tyler text me and we talked about a picture I ran across I sent him of you, he thought you looked so young but it wasn't that long before you passed. I loved that picture!
We celebrated our "55" th Anniversary recently with friends but wished you were there with us in person! It's hard to believe it's that many years!
Derek and I were just talking about you because his boss is a big Boston fan and how his office is full of Red Sox stuff. Tiff is moving soon into a new house and thought of you because of where it is which is where you would want her to be. And Cameron still thinks about you all the time.
You are always in our thoughts and prayers! We all talked about you in Tahoe when we were there for Tiff's 30th Birthday, Uncle Kurt said he has been thinking about you a lot. You are so Loved and missed!
Dad and I will be going to Kauai again this year for Softball and your friends are going again which we are happy about. Dad probably won't be able to play yet but it will be a good rest for him. Dad always wanted you to play Senior Softball and knew you wanted to too! So we know your there with us!
Please keep Dad and Uncle Kurt in your prayers. I always remember what you told me so I know you are thinking about Dad and now Uncle Kurt.
So always remember ALL of us miss you very much and will be with you someday!
Love You Forever And Ever,
Mom and Dad

Hi Son,
Well the book is out with You, Dad, and Uncle Kurt in it! It's a great book that we are very proud of, our thanks go to the writer.
We hope you like our new car, we are really enjoying it especially Dad who picked it and I picked the color.
Cameron just graduated from college, he had a big party and wished you were there in person, he has a friend he says reminds him of you! He is so good looking looks like Zac Efron which a lot of people say and is built like him. Derek just got a promotion and doing well. Tiff got a promotion too, we are very proud of all them!
We have been meeting with All Hallows' parents once a month and enjoying it very much, we talk about you a lot along with some of them who have lost a child or spouse. It looks like we will be going to Kauai again this year with one of your friends which Dad enjoys! This will be Dads big year turning 75! ❤ We also have been going out with some of Dad's family and met with his Gteat Niece from out of state, we really like her!
Met with Tyler and his girlfriend Kadie, we really like her and think she is good for him. You would be very proud of how much Ty has grown up, Cara has done a good job with him, I see you and Cara in him. Glad he lives close by and has his own place!
I better close for now, Easter is Sunday and is never the same without YOU but we will be with Family and talking about you!
Please watch over Dad like you always do!!!
Love You Always, ❤
Mom

Hi Son,
I'm writing to you to answer a special prayer for Dad who needs all the prayers he can get right now so you and God do your magic please!

Dear Son,
Well we lost Uncle Otto, he is now with you, Grandma, Grandpa, his Mom, Dad, Brothers and all who have left us and no longer suffering! He had a beautiful funeral, we saw a lot of old pictures that brought back a lot of memories and saw a lot of cousins and friends which was good!
I know you are proud of Tyler graduating from high school, a lot of our friends in Elk Grove have said how much he and Keoni look like you which is a big compliment! Even relatives have noticed the resemblance, one close friend said he noticed how you were starting to look more like your Dad as you got older which Dad loved hearing!
We went on our vacation to Santa Cruz and this was the first time said he really enjoyed it because of the company of family and friends that were there, the house is in a perfect location, slept eight but we had nine and still it was not crowded! The beaches where it is so clean and within walking distance of the house and yes we went to your favorite Shadowbrook and felt your presence there in more ways than one!
One of your friends came by the other day, he talked about you and we said how much we miss you! And someone very special to you and us just got a huge promotion at work and will be over several people plus moving to a new location, we are very proud just like we know you are!
We have been telling everybody about the book that is being written which will have you, Dad and Uncle Kurt in it, everyone wants to by it! Can't wait!
I will close for now, miss you very much!!!!!!
Love You Always and Forever,
Mom, Dad and Brei

Our Son,
We have been thinking and talking about you a lot! A very good friend is writing a book about Sacramento Baseball and Softball and has been coming over for pictures and wants you, Dad, Uncle Kurt and family members in the book which thrilled Dad and I! So it will be coming out the end of the year and then he is having a book signing the first of the year, we are looking forward to it!!!
Dad is having a rough time right now with his new illness so please look over him like you always have, everybody has been saying special prayers for him! All he wants to do is play softball!!!
This Mother's Day was rough, more then usual and I am so thankful for Family and Friends who are always there for us! I think looking at your pictures made it more rough but I'm thankful for them!!!
Tiff has a new boyfriend, we really like him! I know you would like him too! Dad likes him especially since he likes Giants and 49ers!
Always remember WE LOVE YOU VERY MUCH AND MISS YOU ALWAYS!!!!!❤
Love Always,
Mom and Dad, and little Brei

Our One and Only Son,
Well we made it through the Holidays but again it was rough especially with this Thanksgiving falling on the same day six years ago when you left us! This last year was rough with Dad losing three Sisters in the last 18 months and me losing Uncle Marty, as we get older it seems to be happening more, now Auntie Hope is not doing good! Karin, Kristen and Eric did a beautiful job with the Celebration of Life for Uncle Marty, he and Aunt Carolyn would be very proud! All of us have our special Viking ornament that we put on our Christmas trees! Everybody here on Christmas Day sent you messages which I know you got and like Dad said I cooked and baked too much, I thought of you in all your favorites I made!!!
It's also been a rough year foe Dads health and after being diagnosed with a new health problem we are hoping this year will be better! He is able to play Softball but can't run the bases like he use to so his friends run for him, he did bat 900 in Kauai which he was happy about being the oldest one on the team! I know your proud!!!
We won a house in Santa Cruz for a week so we are looking forward to taking family and friends with us, wish it was you, but you will be with us like always!!!
We go to our wineries in Amador that we belong too and think about you and mention you all the time along with always buying Naughty Body red that you liked, the owners Daughter always gives us an extra bottle cause we told her about YOU!!! We just took Auntie Bonnie and she loved it!
Got Christmas cards and pictures from a lot of your friends, the kids are all growing up so fast, we Love hearing from them! Plus I get a lot of texts from a lot of them throughout the year! It means a lot to us!!!
Well, I will close for now, look after Dad like you always said and continue to show me signs you are there!
Love You Forever and ALWAYS!!!!!
Mom, Dad and Brei

We all love you, and will never forget your handsome face and kind, illuminating spirit.
July 20, 2015
Our Son,
Today would have been your 49th Birthday and it is still hard even though we feel your presence all the time!!! That's why this statement is so true. "Remembering YOU is easy WE do it every day, it's the HEARTACHE of losing YOU that will never go away"!!!! I went to your favorite Celebrity Golf Tournament this weekend with Cameron, Auntie Robin, Tiff and all their friends and we talked about you a lot especially when we saw feathers just like you said!!! I love going to that tournament because you loved it and enjoyed it! Boy does Cameron reminds me of you, he, Tiff, Derek, Uncle Kurt, Auntie Robin miss you a lot!!!! It's hard to believe that Tyler turned 18 last week, getting tall and handsome like his Dad. We are going to take him out to celebrate his big day!!!!
So look for my messages especially on this day!!!!!
Like Dad says "Love and Miss YOU very much every day"!!!!

Hi Son,
We have been doing a lot lately, both our Birthday's went good, Auntie Sue gave me a very special Birthday present and the day of my Birthday was with a very special person. Dad has been struggling with his breathing but hopefully will get better soon! We did get to visit good friends in Reno who just bought a beautiful home with in law quarters and it reminded me of what you use to say!!!! I did see another Medium who told me things you feel and wanted me to know, hopefully you will be able to reach the ones closest to you like you want to! You are with us all the time, thank God for that!
We LOVE YOU ALWAYS!!!!!
Watch for our messages!!!
Mom, Dad and Brei

Hi Uncle Bradd! I've been meaning to post but keep forgetting till now! But anyways Easton is already almost 5 months old time sure does fly! He's a wittle guy though 14lbs. I know baseball season is here. I really could care less. You'd probably be trying to talk me into having Easton play baseball but no baseball for him! Already talking about his first racecar! :) I didn't name him after the baseball bat didn't even know that was a thing till a friend mentioned it. Easton saw Tyler and Keoni a few weeks ago yet are both great with him! Easton is a very vocal happy boy has definatly found his voice. And rolls around and can almost sit up! I'll write again! We all miss you <3

Hi Son,
We went to one of Keoni's soccer games thanks to Deena and Dave, what a good soccer player he is! We got to see him before Dad had his surgery and that meant a lot to Dad! Both Deena and I think he is getting to look more like you every day. We all hope he takes after you the way you were in sports, he looks like he loves it! All the Pickney's thought the world of you and watch over Keoni along with all our Family and Friends who live in Elk Grove!!! We have close friends who live very close to Keoni who tell us their kids see him at school all the time!
Now we are looking forward to seeing Tyler and he is anxious to see us! Can't wait!! This will give Dad time to heal because all he wants to do is get back to playing Softball and we're not sure
when that will be. We know you are watching over him!!! Enough surgeries, we've had enough!!
Now that I'm completely retired we hope to travel and enjoy doing what we want, that is when we both are completely healed! Dad wants to go on another cruise, he really likes cruising! He wants to go somewhere new instead of Disneyland, Disneyworld, China, Alaska, Hawaii, Caribbean, Jamica! I love to go where it is warm, we've even talked of moving out of state but I have a hard time leaving Family and close Friends!!! Especially Auntie Sue who is always there for us! We have friends who just moved to Sparks, Nevada bought a new home with in-laws quarters and it is beautiful all 2,700 square feet. There backyard shows the mountains and has a beautiful fire Pit showing it. It reminded us of you and how you wanted to find a house with in-laws quarters for us to live with you!! They want us to move there!
Well I better close for now, watch over Dad and remember all the Love we have always had for you and always will!!!
Love Forever and Ever,
Mom and Dad

Our Son,
This was our fifth year since you have left and it was again very hard partly because we know what Christmas meant to you. This year we had a real flocked tree, it was beautiful!!!!We had the Family as usual along with Norm and Lorraine who we consider Family along with friends! We had our homemade nachos, your favorite Potato Salad, Turkey, Ham, and a lot of Dips and Desserts! Each one of the Families had a balloon which they wrote a message to you and then we went outside said Merry Christmas BRADD and then released them and that meant a lot to me, plus we opened your favorite red wine for you!!!
We had to put BJ to sleep which really hurt me but he was starting to suffer and I couldn't stand that and I knew he would be with you like you always said! So take good care of him!
My knee replacement went very well, the Dr. Said I'm doing better then any patient he has ever had so I am the bionic woman and will live Forever!!!!! Ha! Ha!
Your Elk Grove friends came to see us and told us all about Keoni because they see him all the time, boy he is getting tall!
We are making our plans to visit Tyler, can't wait!!!!!! You would be so proud of him!!!!! He has a girlfriend named Betthany whom he really likes, we hope to meet her!!! Kara really likes her!
Dad and I hope to travel a lot this year with Famiky and Friends , Auntie Sue wanted us to go to Alaska with her but we want to go somewhere different, Sandi and Family want us to Cruise with them but we are not sure what we will do other then the usual trips!
I will close for now but will message you soon!
We miss YOU very much but we know that we will see you soon!!!
LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER!!!!!!!

Happy Holidays, Christmas and New Years.... :-)
December 5, 2014
Our Son,
Well It's been five hard years now and sometimes you wonder how you go on but memories and feeling your presents have helped us. Like Dad always says "We Have Each Other"!! Thanksgiving was rough but we are very Thankful for Family like Uncle Kurt, Aunt Robin, Tiff, Cameron, Derek, Lorraine and Norm who had us for Dinner since I couldn't do anything due to my knee replacement!
The Holidays are rough because of you not being there even though we feel you with us plus the meaning of the Holidays which is giving of yourself and not always buying, a good friend of ours taught us this and what a true statement!
And congratulations on being a Great Uncle to Easton (What a great Baseball name),he will be greatly Loved just like all of you were!!!
Dad and I were talking about all the memories of your life and all the camping, Cruising, Disneyland, fun times we had together! You gave us so much which is the giving we talk about! You gave us Tyler & Keoni who we LOVE Very Much! We stay in touch with Tyler all the time since he moved and him and I are trying to find a Hotel and places to go while we are there. And he is so happy about his new job, he just got his first check!All of our friends from Elk Grove tells us all the time what a good soccer player Keoni is! Athlete just like his Dad!!!!
We are having Christmas as usual with the Family and friends who would like to come by and like Cameron and Derek say have their Favorite Nachos with homemade beans and everything else, including your favorite Potato Salad.
So I will write after Christmas, please be there like you always say for Dad!
Love YOU Always,
Mom & Dad

Hi Uncle Bradd we missed you this thanksgiving! You are now a great Uncle! :) His name is Easton and he was born on November 17th. I was able to get Keoni to hold him for maybe 30 seconds. Lol. I know you would love him you would probably have been mad at first but you would forgive me. He's gotta be the cutest little baby. But I'm sure you already knew that. We miss you! Love your favorite niece and your favorite great nephew ??
September 29, 2014
Hi Son,
I know its been awhile but you are always in our thoughts! We are doing alright just older. Dad is continuing to play Softball, he is on A 65YR. old team and is carrying the highest batting average on the team, he just can't run as well because of his lungs but you would be proud of him. Especially at 72years old. I'm doing alright, have had a lot of trouble with my right knee, had Orthoscopic Surgery in March which the Dr. did not think would work but I didn't want to go thru knee replacement like he wanted me to so now I have to have it replaced. Not looking forward to it but can't take the pain anymore. So after our trips to St.George and Kauai I will have it done, its scheduled.
Have been going to the wineries I belong to with Tiff, Auntie Robin, and friends of Tiffs. Love it!!! Also went to the Celebrity Golf Tournament the first day with Auntie Robin and stayed with Cameron, Tiff, Friends in a House that he gets every year, I know now why you enjoyed it every year. Then on Saturday went with Uncle Kurt, Aunt Robin, Dad and I, had a ball. Saw a former player on the Red Sox (Tim Wakefield), he is gorgeous, and I made sure he saw my tattoo, he said God Bless You!!! Saw Charles Barkley, Aaron Rodgers, Danika Patrick, Jerry Rice, Joe Theissman, etc., even Dad enjoyed it. I even went night clubbing with Cameron, Kiley, Tiff and their friends, not bad for a old lady of 71. We talked about you the whole time!!!
The one thing that has made Dad and I feel great was hearing from Cara before they moved to Texas and seeing Tyler twice before he left! He is such a good kid, reminds me of you a lot especially some of the things he said which is exactly what you said at that age. Cara has done a beautiful job in raising him and I know you are proud which you should be. I text him all the time and Dad and I are planning on going there next year to see him! Can't wait. He and I always end our text with "I Love You" which means a lot to me!!!! I know he will do well in Texas, his House is beautiful, and even though it is hard on a teenager to move at that age he needed to do it and the way Cara signed him up at school and sports was fantastic. I can't Thank her enough for contacting us.
Have been hearing a lot from relatives that I haven't seen in awhile, its great! Uncle Marty had a stroke, doing pretty good, it makes you think how much time is lost when you don't see your loved ones and like Kristen says " You can't take those years back"!!! She is so right! I thank God everyday for the time I had with YOU!!! And for what John Edwards told me and to watch for will come!!! I plan on seeing him again in January with a lot of friends. Saw my cousin Leta at a concert, talk to Kristen a lot, Uncle Otto and Aunt JoAnn a lot, Uncle Charlie, and Uncle John.
Wanted to let you know I FINALLY retired for good at 71, I thought I would not find enough to do but I spend a lot of time going for coffee, lunch, with Family & Friends. LOVE IT!!! And now Dad & I can Travel when ever we want. We hope to go to Boston soon for you!!!!
Well, I think I have said enough! Dad and I miss you very MUCH, think about YOU every day and know we will see you someday!!!
LOVE YOU FOREVER,
Mom, Dad, BJ, Brei

Hi Son,
I know it has been awhile but a lot has happened and it continues to be rough without you!!! Dad & I had surgery, I'm doing alright but Dad is having a rough year so far. Hopefully it gets better. We did go to San Diego to see Cameron & Kylie along with family, rented a big vehicle to seet up to 8 people and had a great time, saw a lot qand loved Pacific Beach, went to Disneyland for the first time since you passed, Cameron said he wanted to be the one to get me to go, was very hard and could not go in certain areas but thank god for Cameron & Family!!! We went for the week and did see a lot. I told Dad you would love it there. Cameron got a job at a big Hotel there as a Pool Bartender and I said you are going to see a lot of Bikinis there, they even have a walkway that leads right to the Padre's Ball Park, we even went to one of their games. Celebrated my Birthday there and Loved it, Cameron got us great seats. I walked with Cameron to the game and he told me he wants to be just like you, I was so proud and told him that meant a lot to me!!!! And on Mother's Day he texted me and said things to me that made my Day special, told him that he said things that I will never forget!!!! I know I'm not alone but when someone says the right things it helps you get through the day, and Tiff who is always there for us also always says the right thing, Thank God for them, I told Auntie Robin that her & Uncle Kurt have done a great job!!! You would be so proud of them and what they have become!!! Dad had a good Birthday too but like we both say it would be better with you here!!! I did get cards and 3 different flower arrangements on Mothers day
! I am getting to retire for good now, my last day will be June 5th and I am looking forward to it now that I am 71, its time and I want to spend time with Dad and Family while I can. We hope we can still travel like we have been the last few years. I did hear from Rita and got pictures of Grant, now that he is graduating, those boys are so handsome and still talk about you all the time, they idolize you along with others. B.J. is slowing down a lot, he's now 16 and I know I am going to have to put him to sleep which is going to kill me but I know he will be with you like you always said.
Well, I guess I had better go, will write soon! Please look over Dad and help him to feel better!!
We miss YOU very much and now know you are in a better place!!
Love You Forever,
Mom & Dad

Son,
We'll another Christmas withou you here, I have to say this one was the most uplifting one since you left! Every Christmas when I bake and cook I think about your favorite like potato salad, pumpkin and banana bread, like Dad said he thinks Cameron ate enough for you, but nobody could take your place! Cameron and Derek both remind me of you! Derek now lives in San Jose and Camerion is leaving soon for San Diego State but we know they will always stay in touch, our Tiffany moved out and always gets us all to get together, thank God for her!!! Everybody was here for Christmas Day which meant a lot to us. I keep going back to that statement "Death leaves a Heartache NO ONE can heal! LOVE leaves a Memory NO ONE can STEAL!!! Oh what a true statement, that will stick with me for the rest of my life and Dads too!!! We got a lot of cards this year even from your old neighbors, it's great to hear from them. Dad mad I are planning a special trip this summer where we know you will be, can't wait!! It's hard for me to say Merry Christmas or Happy New Year to you because it is not a Happy one without you but deep in my heart I know you are here in spirit!!! Thank You for all the years we had you and for always thinking of us, even wanting us to someday to live with you, we know now we wiill be with you!!!!
LOVE YOU ALWAYS,
Mom & Dad

Hi Bradd...well another Thanksgiving and Christmas without you. I think about you often. I can still hear you laugh when you were teasing me about one thing or another. Even though you passed away so young, we have so many good memories. Your mom and I talk about you all the time. Being that you have connections up there, would you put in a good word for me? I'd really appreciate it. Love and miss you...Auntie Sue

Hi Son,
Dad and I just celebrated our "51" Anniversary and went on the sister ship to the one last year "Allure of the Seas" to the Western Caribbean this year, it is consider the largest Cruise Ship in the world, we had a great time again, went to Haiti, Jamica, and Cozumel, thought of you especially in Mexico and remembered the fun we had with you on the Disney Cruise!!! We hope we can continue to go as long as we can on these great trips. Wish you could go with us!!! Went to Derek's graduation from Chico, it was beautiful and then afterward went to his Frat House, you would have loved it, I could not believe the way some of those boys live. But that's college life. Derek got a job before he graduated with a company out of Santa Clara and loves it. He calls me all the time, Tiffany got a new job working with Enterprise as a manager and out Cameron is still in school. He met a girl named Kiley, we met her last week, you would have approved she is darling, they really like each other. We are going to a Barbecue at her parents house to meet them, he wants us to go and I am thrilled. We are going with the Family to see Chicago, I know you would want to go, hope we have a good time like when we all went to see the Beach Boys!! Dad has been not feeling great so please look after Dad, I keep thinking about what you always said "Dad will be fine", that stays with me all the time!! Also Brei has a medical problem and has to go in the vets so please look after her too, Dad and I Love that Dog a lot!!!!
On what would have been your 47th Birthday we went with very close Family friends that have become our adopted Family to Mikuni's for Dinner because we knew you loved suishi, then went and got balloons, wrote a message on them to you and released them in the air and watched them until they disappeared. Dad and I constantly say to each other how much we miss YOU and wished we could have told you MORE, so I am saying SON, "Dad and I Love you more then you could ever imagine"!!!
Love You Always & Forever,
Mom and Dad

Hi Son,
Well, I had my 70th Birthday and even though you weren't there in Body, you were in spirit! We rented the same Limo Bus that you did for your employees, I asked the owners and they said you rented it for your company and they are patients of our from the clinic, now I know why you did it, it turned out to be a fantastic Birthday with all the people that mean so much to Dad and I! You would have gotten a kick out of Tiff, Derek, and Cameron, we all took a toast to you and talked about you!!!!! We Went to wineries and to Sutter Creek and then came back to the House and partied and again said a Toast to you!!!!Even my boss went and her comment was this was the best group she had been around in a long time. The Limo was great and was very special because you had picked the same one!!! Even the winery where you talked about the Jug gave me a free jug of wine to celebrate my Birthday and boy did I think of YOU!!! Thank You the YEARS I had with you, I will always Cherish them!!!
Please say a special PRAYER to Dad, he has been really sick lately and has had a hard time breathing, you always said Dad will be fine so please help him now, he needs you and all the prayers said for him!!!! Everybody wants to help us with everything but Dad says he will do it when he can, thank God for those people including out neighbors across the street who have helped us a lot. He always tells me I don't want to take the place of your Son but I will do anything to help you two, that means a lot to Dad and I!!!! Plus Uncle Kurt, Auntie Robin, Tiff, Derek, and Cameron are always here for anything we need!!! Plus Auntie Sue and Betten! We don't know what we would do without all of them. That is called CARING about others and helping them!!!! We would be there for them if they needed us and they know it!!!!!
Well enough of that, there is a group of us that are trying to get a date and reading from John Edwards, all of them have seen him on TV, I hope you come through again like you did when I was in Reno!! Always remember SON that Dad and I think about you all the time and know we will be with you in the end!!!
Love You Always and Forever!!!!

Hi Son,
It's been awhile since I left you a message and I wanted to let you know that in the last month and a half we have gone to two funerals for Sons the same age as you, one you knew and played ball with him, Tim, Kennie and Patricia, Tommy B. and some of your other friend were there, we all sat together and talked about you alot!! The other one was a Guy that Dad plays softball with his son, that also was sad, one was a heart attack and the other was an enlarged heart! The Parents asked Dad & I how we get thru it and we said you take one day at a time, it never gets easier just tolerable at times!!And with the help of Family & Friends you manage!!! Dad and I think about you every day and at time feel you with us!!!!! My Heart goes out to everyone who has lost a child and hope and pray it doesn't happen to anyone else even though it does!!! That is why you LIVE every day the fullest and think of others who have lost someone, that is why I still work so I can help someone thru it!!! Good FAMILY and FRIENDS are to be Cherished!!!
Dad and I are planning to do something special for my 70th!!! We surprised Dad last year on his 70th but this year on mine we are doing something you would love and you have done so I know you will be there with me, I can't wait!!! Our close Family and Friends will be with us!!!! We will drink your jug of wine you liked from Karmere!!! Always remember that Dad and I Love you very much and in the end we will be with YOU!!!
Love Forever,
Mom & Dad

Hi Bradd,
Since God was blessed with your presence I have questioned why I was never given the chance to cross paths with you but I understand nothing in life is by coincidence.
I believe I was meant to meet your wonderful parents – whom I now consider my own. Through their stories I have not only learned a lot about you but I have also learned about them and myself. They have taught me about your passion for life, your sense of humor, your selfless heart, and your love for your family and friends. I wish I would have been given the chance to meet you so I could have witnessed such a soul.
Your parents are some of the most loving and caring individuals I have ever met. The wisdom they have passed onto me will be cherished for the rest of my life. However, the characteristic that has shown brighter than them all – is the love for their children. Their hard-work and dedication to both you and Karri shows how much thicker blood is than water and how they would do anything for their children. Not many individuals in life can say they were fortunate enough to have that and both you and Karri were given this gift.
I hope that you show Gloria and Marion each and every day that you are with them. They are some of my most favorite people on Earth and I hope that you continue to guide them through troubled times. I promise you that as long as I am here – I will do the same.
Happy New Year, Bradd. May 2013 bring you lots of joy and happiness.
“Life is not merely a series of meaningless accidents or coincidences but rather it's a tapestry of events that culminate in an exquisite, sublime plan. If we are to live life in harmony with the universe, we must all possess a powerful faith in what the ancients used to call “fatum”, what we currently refer to as destiny”. - Serendipity

Hi Son,
This was our third Christmas without you,they never get easier but we know we have to go on!! I bought Balloons for Christmas Day and Family and Friends put a messages on them to you, then we went out front of the House and released them, Tiffany yelled "Yeah Bradd"! This was a touching moment for me & Dad and it meant a lot to us! We know you got them and that you would Love It!!!!! Norm and Lorraine spent Christmas with us along with Family and Friends, Brittany & Ryan came over, this also meant a lot to Dad & I!! I thought of you when I made my Pumpkin Pies, your favorite Potato Salad! Dad said I made too much stuff, but I made what everybody loves. I made a few new things and wished that you were here to enjoy them but I know you are with me always, because you will always be a "Mommy's Boy" and there is nothing wrong with that, I'm proud of it.
Well, I better go, we are going to a Memorial for Aunt Carolyn, these Holiday's are the roughest when you lose someone like I told Uncle Marty and you wonder how you are going to get through them but like they say "Life Goes On", even though they are not the same. So we will see all your cousins that we have not seen in years today and like Uncle Marty and I said we need to say "I Love You" more often!!
We "LOVE YOU VERY MUCH" and "MISS YOU" and know you are always with us!!

Hi Bradd,
Merry Christmas!!!
We all miss you more than you know! Everyone is great, and it is always nice to spend time with one another. Life is too short to deal with all the negativity, and the negative people. I have you to thank for that. I just wish losing you was not the way for me to comprehend that lesson. You were an amazing and inspirational person, and anyone that came into your path was extremely fortunate. The past few weeks I have heard "Angels among us", and I cannot help but think of you, and all of our memories together. It comforts, and makes me feel protected every time I hear that song. It lets me know that you are looking after me, and reminds me that you will always be in my heart no matter the distance between us. I am very thankful for the time and memories we were able to build together. Please keep looking after all of us. We all know we could use it!:) Be sure to let us know when you receive the notes we sent you! Once again, we miss and love you, and I miss and love you very much! See you in my dreams, and help us always keep the bad out, and the glass half full.
Love you always and forever,
Tiffy

Bradd,
Today I was thinking about you. Thinking about how much I wish you were here to see your sons. I see them often and love them tremendously. They are growing up so quickly and know they miss you and wish you were here to share their lives. I am so happy they have blended their lives so tightly together that you cannot see where one begins and the other ends. They are a unit. A unit of brothers that have developed a relationship that would make you proud. You left your sons with wonderful mothers that have done everything in their best interest. However these boys are a bit spoiled... he he... That is ok.. that is the way kids are suppose to be. If you could keep Keoni from pulling up his socks I would appreciate it! Next LAX Season could you also watch over both of them because they both like hitting the opposition with those sticks and it makes me nervous. Take care Bradd... and please rest in peace knowing we are watching over your boys... Al and Lori..

Hi son,
Well, yesterday was our 3rd Thanksgiving without YOU, it was hard because we know you loved the Holidays but we got through, talked about you a lot and how much we miss YOU!!! Got a beautiful card from Kriss & Rita and got a lot of text message from our friends and yours which meant a lot to us. Dad again played softball in Utah, his team that he was playing for Red hawks won the Bronze Medal so Dad got another ring, he choose your birthstone Ruby to be put on it along with my necklace with the same, we can't wait for them to arrive! Then Dad got asked to play in Kauai, Hawaii the first of November for a team called the NorCal Haoles, some from Hawaii, you would have been so proud of him, he played the outfield and batted 750, he did outstanding, he was the oldest on the team and the younger ones of 55 could not believe how well he plays! He has been invited back next year!! A lot of our friends went and we had a ball, we rented a convertible and a jeep convertible between five of us! The Hawaiians treat you so well, fed us twice a day for three days then had a Dinner Dance the last night with awards. Thought of You the whole time and prayed a lot to you!!!
The one thing that comes to me that I heard that relates to you is
"Death leaves a Heartache that no one can Heal"! LOVE leaves a Heartache that NO ONE can Steal"!!!! Such a true statement that has so much meaning! Dad & I cherish these words! We know you are with us ALWAYS!!
Love You Always,
Mom,Dad,B.J. and Brei

Hi Son,
Sorry it took so long to write but it has been hard at times!! The Cruise was great, they say it is the biggest cruise ship in the world "The Oasis", it was fantastic!!! We had a picture taken on our Anniversary and it is the best picture we have ever taken of the two of us!There were times that we felt you there, especially at St.Thomas when we saw your name on a window while we were shopping, Dad couldn't even believe it!! Then when the couple who was at our table of four for Dinner happened to be from Boston and the biggest Red Sox Fans, we told them all about you and they even invited us to come to Boston and stay with them!! We started e-mailing each other and plan on keeping in touch. Out of over 6,ooo people we got to sit with them. That was great and they loved my tatoo!! This is what John Edwards tells you to look for and it will happen.
Then the hard day for us was on what would have been your 46th Birthday, we went out of town even though we were invited other places, we just wanted to be alone!! We made it through that day but it was real rough, no one expects to outlive your children and no one wants too especially us!!! Thank God for the Family we have left looking out for us. Dad says to this day that you got to do things in your short life that a lot of people don't get to do so he is thankful for that and so am I!! I hope you like the Poem we put in the paper on your Birthday that Grant wrote, everybody has told us how great it was, and that you can tell Grant loved you very much, both Garrett and Grant Loved You like all of us!!!
All I can say is you made an impression on so many people!!!
Thank You for the years WE had you!!
Love You Forever and Ever,
Mom and Dad

Hi Son,
For our 50th Anniversary Auntie Sue gave us a big party on June 3rd with over 70 people, including some of your Elk Grove friends, friends, and some of your classmates parents, Family and close friends, your Godmother, it was fantastic!!! And she also surprised Dad with a 70th Birthday cake along with a Anniversary cake, couldn't ask for a BETTER BEST FRIEND!!! It meant a lot to Dad and I, and Linda wrote a poem about Dad and I that made us both cry, it was beautiful!!! We saw people we have not seen in a long time,old Neighbors and new ones too!! We can't say Thank You enough to Auntie Sue, we know you were there too!! It takes a special and loving person to do that!! She even talked about you and how you were her first nephew!!
Now we are getting ready for our Cruise and how much we are looking forward to it!! Wish you were going with us like Mexico!! You would LOVE this one too!!
Always remember "WE LOVE YOU VERY MUCH" and MISS YOU VERY MUCH!!!!!

I am going to ask for escargot on the Cruise, the same way you and I ate it on the Disney Cruise Ship.
The new team that Dad is on made a Banner to be hung up at all games and it says on it "In Memory of Bradd Newton", we are so proud of it and we know you are too!! Ken Byrnes did this for you!!! This meant a lot to Dad and I!!!!So see YOU will never be forgotten!! Everyone LOVED & LOVES YOU!!!
