Sadly, we lost Brad after his three month battle with West Nile Virus. Two weeks after Hurricane Harvey, Brad was bitten by a mosquito carrying West Nile Virus. On October 1, 2017 Brad collapsed and went into a coma after being admitted to Methodist Hospital. Brad was quarantined in the ICU, and infectious disease doctors were there to give our family the devastating news that the virus had crossed the brain barrier causing encephalitis. Brad awoke from his coma a quadriplegic. Brad fought for his life every, single day until December 29th, 2017 when he passed away to be with the Lord.

The family was raised in Hunters Creek Village and Brad graduated from Memorial High School in 1984. It was growing up in Memorial that Brad made his greatest friendships. Friends that would soon travel to see Brad in the hospital as he fought for his life. Andrew Strong, David Freel, MG Wilkomirski, Dan Powers and GJ Loh were a constant source of encouragement to our family.
