I don´t know even if this will be seen. I just discovered that Brad passed away years ago while searching for something else online. That makes me very sad to read the news. I worked for Brad in the late 80s and early 90s during the holiday season delivering baskets for ABC foods. Brad always treated me and many other drivers with fairness and respect. I saw him juggle his many different work roles with the skill of someone who can manage all types of people. I was impressed by the way he lead with clarity and yet humanity even in the midst of the holiday insanity at ABC. Whether it was Timothea and her team upfront, the people in back making the baskets or us drivers, Brad was more than fair and good to all of us.Years later I happen to be interviewed on the local morning Sunday news and Brad gave me a call the next day encouraging me in my endeavors. I `m sorry to the family for your loss. I know it was quite a while ago but I´m one, I´m sure of many people that were positively impacted by Brad. Thanks.

My deepest sympathy to Susie, Jarrett and Kiley. The laughs and good times that Brad and I had while coaching together will always be remembered. I am glad that he was finally able to win the championship last year.



Brad was quite a character, one that I will never forget. It was a privilege to have coached with him and to have him as a friend.
