Many years ago I lost a husband not too much older than Bradley. We had four children together. So I can relate to the pain you are going through. I also have three sons, losing one would be so devestating to me. I would like to share with you the wonderful hope that our Creator holds out to us. "If a man die, shall he live again?" asked the man Job long ago. (Job 14:14, King James Version) Perhaps you, too, have wondered this. How would you feel if you could have a reunion with your loved ones right here on earth under the best of conditions? Well, when Jesus was on earth he resurrected his dear friend Lazarus. It touches our hearts also because before he did he "groaned in the spirit and became troubled," and he also "gave way to tears." (John 11:33,35) This teaches us that Jesus and his Father Jehovah hate death. There are nine miracles where dead ones were brought back to life on this earth recorded for us in the Bible. These accounts teach us much about the resurrection to come. (John 5:28,29). People who were restored to life right here on earth were reunited with their loved ones. The future resurrecion will be similar-but much better. The whole earth will be made into a paradise.So the dead will not be raised to a life in a world filled with war, crime and sickness. They will have the opportunity to live forever on this earth in peaceful and happy conditions under God's heavenly government or Kingdom. (Psalm 37:9-11,29; Matthew 6:10, Revelation 21:3,4) To have confidence in such promises we need to answer some basic questions: Why do people die and where are the dead? If you would like to see what the Bible says I would be happy to share that with you if you reply. Sincerely, Joyce Armold laritaarmold@gmail.com

Oh Brad, I was so shocked and saddened to hear about your passing. You were way too young for your life end like this. My heart goes out to your mother, Kimberly; your wife, Gina; your children; Dawn Michele and the rest of the Charles Family. It's so very sad that nothing worked-out for any of us like we thought it would. Just wish I could have given you a big hug and reminded you of just how much you were loved by your Father. He was always so very proud of you no matter what happened or what took place - even if he growled about it. So remember, that in spite of all the ups and downs, unfortunate situations and troubles that you suffered in your young life - Your Life Was Still Important in This World and There is No Doubt - That You Were Loved. Please give your Dad a Kiss for me. He was Loved too . . . and I miss him so. To Be Absent From The Body, is to be Present with The Lord . . . II Corinthians 5:8 Now you walk with both of your Fathers Sheryl Huntington Beach, California

Gina, My thoughts and prayers go out to you and the kids. Brad was such a big part of our family for such a long time. He was and always will be Tim's best friend. Growing up it was never one without the other. Our hearts are broken. We will always be here for you and the kids. Tim will have great stories for Waylon about them growing up surfing, skateboarding, fishing. He will be missed but never forgoten.

Condolence From Jacob and Sandy Azar
