Well, Son , you made it...you have finally arrived...you called me "dad" and Carla, Mom because we were so close to you and Lisa, we have been there for you when you dedicated your life to Jesus, there for your wedding and honeymoon, there for the babies dedication, birthdays, church celebrations, when you got your new home and when you had to move,and so,so so many other wonderful events, that are to many to mention. But as I sit here in tears, I just want to say that you have left a beautiful legacy in Conner and Keagan, and your memory will never been forgotten by any of the members of Redemption House or Harvest Ministries. You always kept me updated as to where you were and what you were doing just like a good son, and I will miss you so much, we were so much alike. we love you..
"Dad"

Bless Brad & his loving family. I grew up with him at the Anthony School in Little Rock. We all butted heads. After we were grown I would run into Brad, the grown up at restaurants & and around town and saw a good positive man. One I wish I would have kept up with through the years. My heart goes out to his precious mother and young boys. Your family is on my mind and in my prayer.
Lovingly, Christina Crisp

Alan, I was so sad to get Lynn's email about Brad. I am so sorry. My only memory of him is as a precious baby, but he sounds like a man who loved his family very much and had your sense of humor. I know he will be missed by his family and friends. I pray he is at peace and having a good long visit and laugh with Zeke.

Brad & I were pen pals in Junior High. I'll never forget his imagination and sense of adventure back then. Thoughts and prayers with each of you during this time.

Bradley and I started working for Toyota at the same time. I've never met someone so charismatic, funny,sincere, compassionate and talented. He has a beautiful artistic soul that will be missed in this life. I'm really going to miss him. God Bless his children and family. May God take the heaviness from your hearts that he went peacefully,loved by friends and yourselves. He left an impression on the world that will never be forgotten.

I knew Brad growing up and was able to re-connect with him and his family years later. I saw his first son dedicated to the Lord at church. We had many talks about God and know he is with him now. I am so very sorry for your loss.

Blessings to you,
Kyle Farmer

Bradley and I lived together for months. His days were filled with talk of love for his boys and their mother. His evenings ended often with songs written for them. He brought hope and laughter to me on a daily basis. He inspired me to try.
Although I will miss the melodic sounds of his voice I will remember his infectious smile forever!
As he would for me, if his sons are ever in need please contact me and I will do all I can.
Sincerely,
Sully

I lived with Bradley for months. He spoke daily about his love for his boys and their mother. Most nights found him writing music for them. Bradley brought hope and laughter to me and all those he touched. I value having spent time with him and, although I will miss the sound of his voice, I will remember his smile forever.
As he would do for me, if there is ever anything his boys need please contact me and I will do all I can.
Sincerely,
John Sullivan
