Sarah and Riley, I am so sorry to hear about the accident! It still doesn't seem like it can be real. I'll never understand why God takes someone so special to so many people so early. I can rember when I first met Brad in Milford, we became instant friends, and have been ever since. It always impressed me how many friends he had around Columbus for the Short time he had lived there, But it never surprised me! I was also always amazed by his mechanical ability, and that he could somehow jst do anything that he put his mind and it would turn out awsome!, yet he was the most grounded down to earth person I knew. I will never find another friend like Brad.

Sara & Riley - We are thinking of you both each and every hour of every day. Brad was such a great ‘all-around’ guy and at times like this it is so hard to understand what God has in mind for any of us. Dave and I have been remembering that crazy laugh of his and that alone makes us smile a little! We’ve all had a lot of great times together and because of that he will be remembered in our hearts forever. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers and we will be there for you when you need us the most, whenever that may be. With Love~ Dave, Stacy, Triston, Carmen & Larkin

Sarah, Riley, and Family, When we asked the kids what was their favorite memory of Brad was, they all said the 4-wheeling, the cabin, airboating, and what a good cook he was. Julia said "She'll miss going fast on the airboat" and Brodie said, "He'll miss eating all of Riley's Scoodie Doo snacks at the cabin and the big big fires". But Michael said (and we all agreed) that what he would miss the most is Brad's incredible laugh. We keep playing his laugh over and over in our minds so hopefully we never forget how it sounds and how his laugh made everyone smile. We love you both so very much!

Dearest Sara and Riley, Words can not begin to express the heartache we feel for you at this time! I also don't understand the reasoning and don't know if I ever will, why such a wonderful father and husband would be taken so early from his precious wife and child! Brad truly was one of the most sincere, kind hearted, talented men we were blessed to have known. We will cherish so many memories and laughs that he brought to all of us. We will remember his unforgetable smile and his laugh that was so contagious that just hearing him would make you laugh! We will miss his love to entertain and spoil us with his wonderful cooking! We will miss him dearly! Please know that we will ALWAYS be here for the two of you and we're a phone call away! Our thoughts and prayers are with you now and always! Love....Angie, Rick and Brandon!

Dear Family of Brad, I did not know Brad personally but I knew his Granparents, Bernard and Vella Escritt real well and also knew his Great Grandparents Escritts and many of his cousins. The Escritt family was a family of the Neligh area that were very well known, and liked. Brad could have been proud to have come from such a nice family. I am sorry for your loss, as we lost one of our sons on 19 March 2006 but it was due to Cancer. I am sure that with his upbringing, he would have made the Neligh and Columbus areas a better place to his being raised there, since he came from an honest and hard working family background in his short life. You have the Sympathy I am sure from the whole Peterson family that originated in Neligh. We will never forget the Escritt family and the contribution they played in the Neligh area. Richard and JoAnn Peterson and Sons.

To mom and dad and grandparent. I never knew bradley, but know his grandparents well. I want to send my sincerest sympathies, as I know personally what it means to lose a young son. My own son, TJ, died at the age of 31. Really, there are few words to say at this time, just know I will be praying that God will comfort you and He can do it. I pray you feel the warmth of the love of your family and friends at this very difficult time.

Sara, Riley, and family- It is really difficult to express how truly and deeply sorry we are for your loss. Brad was such a special guy with so many talents. His laughter echoes through our heads as his smile in our hearts. Like you & I always said- when D.J. and Brad get together they are like two little girls :) I will never forget that. His friendship we will always cherish. You two were one of the most giving couples we have ever met. Your generosity and kindness was overflowing to everyone. We feel so blessed to have met you two and to have known Brad and had him for a time in our lives. Please know Sara that whenever you need anything don't hesitate to give us a call. We will be here for you and Riley if you need us. Our deepest sympathies and love- D.J., Becky, and Mackenzie Brandenburg

I was Brad's classmate. It has been over five years ago since I ran into Brad at the racetrack in Columbus. I was shocked when I heard the news. Brad was the kindest and getlest guy I knew in high school. Those to have known and loved Brad are very fortunate to have had him.
