You should be here celebrating life, but some asshole took you away,, and i and the rest of family needs to know who the fuck did this to you.  I, and, we, all, love you utmost!

Thinking of you today, I can’t believe it has been 12 year since u have been gone, I still prayer they bring your killer to justice... love u cuz 

Hi Bradley

Even though it has been awhile I think of you -- often.   I get choked up whenever, your name comes into a conversation or when just thinking about you; or when I see Lexi and Amaya photos.  They are doing great.  Inez is a great, hands- on mom. And boy, do they resemble you. 

Although ten years have gone by you are still fresh in my memory. I and everyone loves and misses you.

I will be back to chat with you again, soon.

Love

Aunt Margaret

We all miss you still...you were one of a kind

YOU WILL ALWAYS BE IN MY HEART AND MIND!!!!!!

I miss you so much...i wish my son had the honor to meet you................ you were such a good kid... i love and miss you extremly, especially since i did not have the chance to be there at times i would have wished.................................... life sucks  too much...............

FYI- I have contacted the Philadelphia police department over the years, and those sorry MF's (figure it out) are totally unhelpful... as always..................  What is the next step?  It has already been over 5 yrs. , and the idiots still have not come to a conclusion......................Well, I need resoulution...already pissed off because of my lil bro..........

Always thinking about you....it hurts so much that you are not here..I regret taking for granted when you were here, i so much wish that i tried harder to be in your life more.....Love you so much and hate what has happened and i hate that there is no resoulution;  i truely feel that not enough has been done and i know that more can and should be done to  find out why you're not here and the person or persons responsible.............I am so angry; why did God allow you to be gone at such a young age?  Who did it and why????  Why does it seem the Philly police are not doing much about it???  It has been over 5 years now, and they haven't got a clue????? I guess my little brother is not the right color or gender to attract the Philly PD's attention...If he was a white blue eyed white blond girl, this would've been solved already.....................  Either the Philly PD are not researching, or they are a bunch of stupid, fucking idiots..........................

Brad, I miss you so much man.  I know your in a better place smiling down on us but my heart is dying, I miss you.  Continue lookin down on us because we all (family) hurt so much inside, we cry everyday, it's know fun witout you.  Missing you.  your best friend and big brother, Vince

We miss you. You were a great man and a great father now you are watching over us and will never be forgetten you live on in our hearts.

 

Brad is my childrens cousin (Casi & Jordan Deshield), Brad was a great guy and theres not a day that goes by that I don't say a prayer for him and his family. Keep your heads up and stay strong. Love and miss you Brad!!!! 

Inez,

My heart goes out to you. Everytime I see you page or look at you pictures it takes me back for a moment and reminds me of the pain you feel when you loose someone close. Its a feeling that in time will fade away. It never leaves, but everyday it gets a little bit easier. Always remember that in your life God will not place things that you are not strong enough to handle. Everytime I pray, a prayer goes out to you and your family in hope to comfort your heart and help you to stay strong. There will always be a moment that something or someone will remind you of Brad. I pray that you take it the way I do when I'am reminded of Anton, I smile because I believe that its Anton telling me that he's ok and everything in my life will be ok. Keep your head up and just know that you always have a shoulder to cry on.                     

                                           Peace & Love 

To believe is to know that 
every day is a new beginning.
It is to trust that miracles happen, 
and dreams really do come true.
To believe is to see angels 
dancing among the clouds....
I believe our Brad is one of them.
looking down upon his family and friends.

Please don't mourn Brad's death but celebrate his life.

Ashley, a neighbor and friend of Brad's

My dearest sister Elizabeth, my neice Lisa, my nephews Tom and Vince and to my extended family.  My heart is full of love for you all.  I pray for peace, healing and understanding that only the Lord can give.  Keep praying and believing. The Lord hears and will answer your prayers.  That's a promise.

 

I love you.

 

Margaret

IT REMINDS ME OF BRAD TALKING TO EVERYONE HOW EVER KNEW HIM.

 

WHEN TOMORROW STARTS WITHOUT ME AND I'M NOT HERE TO SEE...IF THE SUN SHOULD RISE AND FIND YOUR EYES FILLED WITH TEARS FOR ME, I WISH SO MUCH YOU WOULDN'T CRY THE WAY YOU DID TODAY...WHILE THINKING OF THE MANY THINGS WE DIDN'T GET TO SAY. I KNOW HOW MUCH YOU LOVE ME, AS MUCH AS I LOVE YOU...AND EACH TIME YOU THINK OF ME, I KNOW YOU'LL MISS ME ,TOO. BUT WHEN TOMORROW STARTS WITHOUT ME, PLEASE TRY TO UNDERSTAND...THAT JESUS CAME AND CALLED MY NAME AND TOOK ME BY THE HAND, AND SAID MY PLACE WAS READY IN HEAVEN FAR ABOVE... AND THAT I'D HAVE TO LEAVE BEHIND ALL THOSE I DEARLY LOVE. SO WHEN TOMORROW STARTS WITHOUT ME, DON'T THINK WE'RE FAR APART... FOR EVERY TIME YOU THINK OF ME, I'M RIGHT HERE IN YOUR HEART.

 

GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN   RIP BRAD AKA REBEL

                      things will improve for your family a love lost is a love gained he left his soul behind in his kids pull togather and show him how he was truely loved

Inez,

None of us ever thought we would be here. No one imagined they would be saying goodbye forever to Brad. I know you have your own special memories of Brad, but there are a few things about him I would like to say. 

Me and Brad met in elementary school and from that point on, we had almost every single class together up until the day we graduated high school together.

When I think of my friend Brad, I think of a person who was fun. He had a great sense of humor, a keen wit, and he loved to laugh. More importantly he loved to make others laugh. His smile was infectious. Brad loved spending time with his friends and family especially his 3 favorite girls (Alexia, Amaya and Inez). Everyone knew that nothing came before yall. Whenever I would see Brad around, he always spoke of daughters about how big they were getting and how smart and beautiful they all are.

I once heard that we all have a birthdate and a deathdate with a dash in between them. It's what you do with your dash that counts.  Brad accomplished so much throughout his young life and I can’t even imagine what more was to come.

I will miss my friend, but I am grateful to have known him.

Stay Strong Inez. I will talk to you soon.

Love Always,

Michelle

Inez I just want to say that I love you!  I know times are hard right now and it seems like you can get on with your day, but you have the girls that will get you through the day.  I know your a strong woman because you have done great so far.  You get up everyday and you get through the day no matter if it's good day or a bad day.  It may not seem like it, but I do worry about you and the girls now.  You are always on my mind.  I wish there was something I could do or say to make you feel better.  The only thing I can really say right now it I do love you very much (and the girls) and I'm here if you just need to talk. 

Inez,

 

God wanted another Angel and therefore he chose Brad!  You will always and forever have pieces of him with you in Lexi and Amaya!!!!  Try your hardest to be strong for them and let the love you deeply hold inside for Brad live on through your precious daughters!!!!  May the Lord help our prayers and support give you strength and slowly uplift you!  We love you dearly!!! 

 

With Much Love Always,

Jazmin

Inez,

Vanessa

I am so sorry for your loss.I have known brad since the 5th grade and he was always the one who lit up a room with his smile and no matter where he was everyone was laughing.

Inez my prayers are with you and the kids.Rest In Peace Brad.
