Brad was a sweet man, I’m so sorry for your loss. Thinking of all of you today 🙏
Leigh Ann and family, I am so very sorry for your loss. Prayers of strength, peace and healing 🙏 to you all.
We are so saddened by the loss of Brad. We knew Brad since he was just a small boy, living in Clifton Park, NY when his father, Russ, was working as the General Manager for Sears Roebuck (Eileen was his Administrative Secretary). We met all the family on several occasions, Donna, Brad and Leigh Ann. They always made us feel like we were part of the family. We have known this family for almost 25 years. It was when they moved to Chicago and Brad was now an adult, that we went to visit them. Brad was so excited we were coming, as he loved to cook, and he made a wonderful meal. We had great conversations and lots of laughs. Bradley would occasionally call us and we'd talk and he'd bring us up to date on what was going on with him and the family. Bradley was so sweet, kind, loving and caring. He was a wonderful son to his mom who he looked after with love. We will miss him dearly. Our thoughts and Prayers go out to Donna and Leigh Ann. May they find strength in the Lord to get through his loss. He will be missed but never forgotten. He will live on in our memory. He is now with his dad, may he rest in peace.
My Condolences and deepest sympathies to Donna and Leigh. Our thought and prayers are with you during this time of grief.

We have known the Davis family since we moved almost next door to them. We moved from San Diego where our son was born in 1989. Donna & I worked for Sinclair & Valentine & we all stayed friends ever since! I remember Leigh for her Big Hair! Brad has the biggest place in my heart ♥️ as my father was staying with us recovering from a heart attack. He didn’t answer the phone when I called & I was the receptionist so when I told Donna she said we have a key. You can’t leave your desk so Brad will run down & check. He did but, not good news. He called 911 took care of everything! Thank you Brad! Leigh is holding her own & a support to you Donna! We love ❤️ you all!
