Dear Carol and Family - my deepest, heartfelt sympathies. Brad fought a good, hard fight. The love and care you all showed him throughout his long journey home was herculean. From our school days to a recent conversation, his kindness was always appreciated.

I am an Aunt of Brian and Kimberly Young. The few short years that I knew Brad I knew immediately that he was a warm hearted, fantastic person. I knew that by observing the sweet, smart, loving daughters that he and Carol loved and raised. His legacy will live on in his grandchildren
