Dad, you will be missed very very much I love you and Mom dearly, and grateful for the virtues and morals that you raised us with. We’ve had good times and bad times, thankfully the older we got the more good times we had. Proud to have you as my father, you were Stern and strict but as I have matured and aged in life I realize that everything you did was for a reason. You never deprived us of anything but made us work for everything and for that I am forever grateful you will always be loved and missed. You’re sad, but loving son J.B.
Sending my deepest condolences to Brad’s loved ones during this difficult time. He certainly knew how to light up a room and his light will be missed by all those who knew him. Thinking of you all. – Scott Jabara
HE WAS A GREAT BROTHER IN LAW. HAD A LOT OF FUN TIMES WITH HIM AND ANNA. R.I.P.
News travels a little slow to Kansas City and I just learned of Brad’s passing. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time. I have many fond memories of Brad as a young cousin and know he will be greatly missed. Again, blessings and condolences to you all. Gina and Brian McRae
