After trying to reach out to Brad a couple of times over the past few weeks, I received a text from his daughter on Thursday.  He passed on August 5th.

I passed on our condolences.  Rest in peace Brad.

So sad. We've lost an outstanding Geek.
RIP, Brad.

Extremely sad...I never had the pleasure of meeting him in person, but he participated in all of my passes, and turned me onto some of my favorite cigars I keep stocked in my humidor now. We definitely lost an amazing geek! RIP brother

Rest in peace Brad.  He was an outstanding brother and I know no one could argue that.  Will certainly be missed.

     Lost a great guy. Really going to miss him. Very sad.
I am not concerned about what you think as I can tell you don't do it often.

I used to be a people person, but then people ruined that for me.

Brad was truly one-of-a-kind.  Generous to a fault.  He will surely be missed by all of us.

Apologies if my original message seemed short. Brad and I spent a good bit of time together. We attended a lot of the same cigar events, I met his family, and he was all around a great guy. Even though he and I didn't see a lot of each other in the past few years since I moved further out of town, this news was tough. He will definitely be missed!
