A man of many talents and interests, Brad found joy in the simple pleasures of life. He was a devoted family man who treasured every moment with his wife Danielle and their sons, Lukas and Nikalas. Brad's love for adventure often led to spontaneous day trips, watching sports & cheering on his favorite teams, spending time with family & friends, trivia nights, family picnics, ice cream outings, and creating memories that his family will cherish forever.

Up until the end he continued to show strength,  courage, determination, and love for his family. His legacy of love and compassion will continue to inspire those who had the privilege of knowing him.

Brad leaves behind his beloved wife, Danielle Bowers, and their sons, Lukas and Nikalas, as well as his mother Janet, and a network of extended family and friends who will carry his memory in their hearts.
