We went to school together and haven’t seen each other in many years. Always had a great sense of humor. Bought alot of cars from Brad’s dad. Our thoughts and prayers are with Brad’s family.
Condolences to your family from your old neighbors on Pin Oak. You are thought of by many at times like these. Our prayers are with you.
Linda, Aunt Junie, and cousins — so sorry we could not be with you today. My thoughts, prayers, love and memories are with you. Why Jerry Brad was Connie and my baby when he was born. We dragged him all over that farm….first baby we remembered being around and such a beautiful one at that!!! He grew up to be even more beautiful in all ways. He is surely with Uncle Jessie, Connie, Grandma, Aunt Rita, my Mom, Sisie, and Aunt Gigi and all our other loved ones. Truly sorry for your loss. Prayers and love to all of you.
