2/13/07 I am just finding out about Mr. Braden's passing and my sincere condolences go out to the family. He and my father Walter J. Parrish were frat brothers, attorneys and very good friends. It is ironic to find this out on my father's 79th birthday. God bless his family!

Dad, I will always remember how
you taught us to thank God that things are as good as they are. Thank you for being such a terrific
dad. Thank you for your love, kindness, words of wisdom and inspiration. Stan and I have truly
been blessed to have you as our dad. You will always be with us. You have been such a terrific husband to mom and your devotion to each other is a perfect example of what true love in a marriage is all about. We all love you and we
will keep the faith and carry on
your tradition of striving to be
the very best in all that we do
in God's name!
Zed III (aka Rick)
