To Brad’s family – you have my deepest sympathies. I hope your memories provide you with some comfort.
I met Brad through the Meetup groups. It’s been some time since I have been to an event, but I remember Brad fondly. We met at hikes in Gatineau Park and at other social events. He was kind hearted and generous. I recall him speaking often of his children. He will be missed.
My deepest condolences to the family. I had the pleasure of chatting with Brad during long hikes in Gatineau park with a group of outdoor enthusiasts.
He was very intelligent and genuine. He will be missed.
A total shock. I just found out today. 😟😕😟. I was shocked when Brad said his birthday was a day after mine.. we are born in the same year. Soft-spoken well-mannered guy a nice to be around. He will be missed by his beloved Meetup members, I being one of them. Dearest condolences to all family and friends.

I am so saddened to hear Brad’s passing, my condolences, and deepest sympathies. Brad was my mentor when I first joined BNR in the early 90s. He was an excellent developer and a pleasure to work with, it is such a big loss.

So sorry for your loss! Brad was far too young. I worked with Brad at BNR, later Nortel, and he was really talented and a pleasure to work with. We socialized a bit with Brad and Ellen in Kanata until we moved.
Jack and Jacqueline, so very sorry for your loss. We are sending you love and hugs at this extremely sad time.
