Brad gave his life to Jesus at a young age. His love for life was evident in the number of people he impacted in his 33 years of life.

Brad was a fun loving guy and loved his family immensely. He had a very special bond with his sisters and brothers-in-law. He was a very loyal friend. Brad was passionate with his work, being a successful district sales manager, currently employed with Worth Manufacturing.
