Oct 10 th 1984 Brad's Birthday....A great day for any parent when their child is born. Brad would have been 37 tears old today, can you imagin him at this age, so much smarter and wiser than he was at 25. I miss him and love him and still talk to him every day. This will go on untill the day I meet him in the world to come. I still have both of his VWs, the 53 Oval and the 70 Baja and yes they are both for sale. Happy Birthday Brad and know that your Dad loves you.

Remembering Brad at Christmas time. Three of us drank a salute to him at 7:15 PM last night, This was the time in the evening that he passed 12 years ago on Christmas Day. I'm sure others drank one also. I love and miss him, guess I always will.
Sold his 53' Oval in Novenber and I believe it went to a good home

Happy Heavenly Birthday to my son Bradley Harrison Williams. You would be 38 years old today. Brad you are loved and missed by me and a great many others. I sold the Baja, so all VWs are gone. 80% of all VW parts out back were given to the scrap man, he seemed to be the only person interested at the time ( a shame they were destroyed ) Finally got in touch with Dustin and he hauled away two engines that ran and a bunch of parts. He had been in Oregon for months but came back in time to beat the scrap man.

Thirteen years is not such a long time as Glen stated. It still seems like yesterday to me that Brad left this world. A day doesn't go by that I don't think of him and the many things that he has done in his short life. He was such a great kid and wonderful young man, I miss him so. Thank you Glen for posting and I encourage others to post a memory of theirs to help keep Brad's memory
alive.

I say good morning to Brad and Bev each time I drive my bus.
Had they met I think they would've been the greatest of friends.

Just checking in folks, After looking at the most recent pictures of Brad we aring his VW jacket and remembering him asking me to sew the " VW " on for him. Well I got a little choked up and thought I'd check in here with the news that Brad's cat "Whitefoot" is dying of cancer and old age 19yrs. I still talk to Brad everyday. I love him and miss him. Maybe Whitefoot when on the other side will find Brad and they can hang out together again.........maybe

Thanks for the update Owen. Really sucks about white foot😔😔😔. On a sidenote yearsagoi had B-Rads smoothies from his oval and had given them to a friend to powder coat them. Years later he finally shipped them to me untouched, I had happy with it to that they weren't powdercoated for whatever reason. I will post up some pics later.

Brad's Birthday, It's that time again Oct. 10th, 1984. Brad would be 39 years old on the 10th. of Oct. Think how much smarter he would be than that young man who left us at 25...... 14 years ago. Yeah I still talk with him via a picture on the wall, left side of my desk with him sitting in the Left seat of a Boeing B17 fort from a Chino Air Show. Lots of other pictures up there too that I talk to or just smile at as I was behind the camera of all of those. Love you, Miss you Brad. Dad
