Brad's personality
A Washingtonian his entire life, Brad loved nature. He loved nearly all genres of music and was known for packing a traveller's guitar in his suitcase to bring with him on business trips. He enjoyed attending baseball and hockey games, feeding neighbourhood crows and was a phenomenal cook.
Brad was very generous and passionate about helping others; an amazing friend with a gift for making people feel special. He lightened rooms with his “puniness”, “Dad jokes”, and bawdy humor that will be missed by many. He leaves behind his wife Karen, two children, Wren and Krista, and his two dogs Ella and Nova.
