Growing up w/Suz, Dad Brady was always joking with us. Their are so many wonderful memories and laughs from the practical jokes that he played. There was always so much warmth that came from that strong wonderful gentleman. We are so honored that our boys got to know such a special man.
All our love,

Godspeed my friend and say "hi" to your wife for me. My deepest condolences to the Suzanne, Nick, my friend, Jimmy and his son Danny. May God keep his memory alive in your hearts forever. Your family taught me the true meaning of being Irish.
