Yes, the summer Brad visited us was a lot of fun.  Brad and I were just a year apart in age.  I remember eating watermelon in my mom, Dot's backyard and squeezing the seeds through our fingers to see how far we could make the seeds fly.   Also,  Aunt Lena took Brad, and my cousin, Charles,  and I into D.C. to see the many monuments.  I remember that Dorothy Anne and her daughters were visiting that week as well and we were all excited to get to know our cousin, Bradley.

My earliest memory of Bradley was when I traveled to Las Vegas with Aunt Mary and Uncle Jim.  I was 14.  What an adventure that was.  I remember it being very hot in Las Vegas.  And, someone wanted to prove how hot is was.  I do not remember who, but I do remember someone getting an egg out of the house and "frying it" on the asphalt as Uncle Jim, wearing his white undershirt, was looking under the hood of a car.  I do not remember if the car was Jack's or Brad's.  Although, they were all trying to figure out what was wrong with it.  But, I do distinctly remember that Bradley was  always smiling.  He was so easy going and happy, he seemed to roll with whatever life gave him.  

I met Bill in 3rd grade but I knew him as Brad. Not only did we become friends but also our families, even after he moved to Sandy Valley. I remember a trip we took to The Grand Canyon. On the drive there, we were in back of the Station Wagon trying to get Semi Trucks to blow their horns. 
You will be missed. Rest in Peace Brad.

I never fought with my older brother Bradley like many other siblings do. He was always so laid back and easy going that we just got along. So even when he dented my first car when we were teenagers, it was hard to be mad at him. He just gave me the ole easy going attitude that he will get it fixed, and he did in "Bradley time", which was many months later. Good guy always, and nice to everyone. May he rest in peace. 

Here we are on a trip with some family friends to Lake Havasu, AZ.  Thats the London Bridge in the background.


I remember Bradley at the family reunion a few years ago.  He was such a fun guy,  smiling, talkative and approachable.   He seemed to just enjoy being himself and  getting to share in a family event.  I am so glad that I was able to get to know him a little better on that day. 
I pray that the memories shared will bring comfort.  

Love,
Anne Marie

And Charlie knew this better than any of us.  See, Charlie was this scare,  abuse, nervous dog who would shy away from almost everone. Jack and I brought him to James after one of my aunts found him in a park as a puppy,  only a few weeks old. But even though we picked James to offer take the dog, the dog almost immediately took to Billy. And from that moment on Charlie and Billy became inseparable. Charlie knew Billy's gentle nature was what he needed and Billy needed him.  We are glad that those two had each other.  

I will always remember the summer Bradley was here with Betty & Grandma an we went to Great Falls Park. He had a wonderful time with his cousins climbing on the rocks. He was always a Happy Go Lucky Guy with a fun sense of humor. Now he is  an angel in heaven looking down on everyone. Rest In Peace Bradley.  Aunt Cathy

Bill Hayes was the best brother a person could ask for. I've never known a more honest or good man in my entire life. He's always helping people out including myself. Just recently he bought groceries for me when my foot was in too much pain to walk. And helped change my tire after ruining my tire in a near miss car accident 3 weeks ago, and jumping the battery in my truck when the battery went dead, and helping me push it. When I was 11 I have a memory of my brother acting as our "guardian" to get my other brother and I into the rated R movie Terminator back in 1984. He was a big part of my life, and a part of my household. He will be dearly missed. I love you brother. James. 

Please accept my sincere condolences on the loss of Bradley.  Happy memories of times spent with him in the summertime growing up, his cheerful smile, and being together again at the family reunion will always remain in my heart.
With much love and sympathy,
Carolyn Heaney


Bradley you always had a smile for everyone and were always willing to lend a hand.  You were an example of loving your neighbor.  Some people talk it, some people live it.  We love you and are so sorry you left this world so soon, Love Aunt Betty

Freda,
I was extremely saddened to hear of Bradley's passing and words cannot express my heartfelt sympathy.
The summer that Bradley came to stay with Grandma and Aunt Betty is one of my fondest childhood memories. Bradley was a sweet, kind and funny person and we had so much fun that summer on our day trips and adventures! 

May your memories give you peace and comfort in your time of sorrow.

"Those you love don't go away,
They walk beside you every day,
Unseen, unheard but always near,
Still loved, still missed, still very dear.
Death leaves a heartache no one can heal,
Love leaves a memory no one can steal."

Love,
Kathy Niner
