His daughter born 6 months before his passing and now on she is on her way to her 1st year in college. Time has gone by fast but the memories of you are daily. Then adding to the heartache was the loss of our father in November 2024.
I will never forget the 2 of you and will always honor your memory 😇💔😢

Just read this on my brother's FB page our dad created. I keep learning new stories and every so often a new photo arrives, I cherish these as there is never new photos or new moments. I cant believe the date exactly 13 years later he lost his life. Very sad, so many accomplishments in such a short amount of time. Love you Bradley

From classmate John Roache
Oh wow…. I didn’t realize the date. 31 years ago today (15 Aug 94) we reported to The Citadel, becoming classmates and brothers forever!
I spent many hours with him as a EE major!
Rest easy Brother…..
